Sudbury Finnish bakery celebrating 60 years in business

One of Sudbury's most beloved family bakeries is celebrating 60 years in business next month.

Leinala's Bakery is known for its jelly pigs, pulla, meat pies and other Finnish treats. It was one of the first places I'd visited in Sudbury after receiving a tip from listenerStefan Skogberg.

To learn more about the business, I reached head baker and manager Aaron Laakso.
