Remembering Natick’s Wonder Bread Factory

The Natick Historical Society is hosting a free event dubbed “Remembering Natick’s Wonder Bread Factory” on Saturday, Oct. 19 from 11am-12:30pm at 58 Eliot St. in Natick. Registration is open.

In 1964, the Continental Baking Co. opened “the largest bread and cake bakery in the world” in Natick.

Reminisce about Natick’s Wonder Bread Factory and remember the people who worked there from 1964 to 1999.

The NHS remembers longtime Continental Baking Co. driver Paul Virdinlia, whose family donated the items in the Society’s Wonder Bread collection. Paul drove a Continental Baking, Co. truck three million miles with no accidents!
