About Us
It all began in 1880 when Anna Maria Faust, Merridee's grandmother, came to Minnesota from Sweden, bringing her most precious recipes, a sense of tradition and an uncompromising set of values for high quality food. She worked as a cook in St. Paul and was at one time the head cook for the Pillsbury family. Anna Maria always wanted to have a bakery of her own. She enjoyed good conversation, good humor and good coffee, which she brewed all the time. Anna Maria passed on this heritage to her granddaughter, Merridee.
Merridee Erickson grew up on the family farm near Winthrop, Minnesota, baking breads, pies and sweets with her mother. Saturday was bread-baking day, and by the age of nine she was doing most of the baking herself. Merridee attended the University of Minnesota where she studied Food Business. While there, she met and married Tom McCray. In 1973, Merridee and Tom moved to middle Tennessee. In 1981 Merridee began retailing her fresh-baked goods from a little log cabin in Fairview. As word spread, she was asked to open a shop as part of the historic revitalization of downtown Franklin. An old hardware store warehouse on Fourth Avenue, that was once a harness shop, became the home of Merridee’s Breadbasket in the spring of 1984. Merridee’s quickly became a favorite gathering place in Franklin.
