David wanted his Charter Members cottage to be special and hold meaning behind its design. You can probably trace David's thought process by this: Set on the banks of a river, the Foundation now comes to fruition as "Canal Street Bakery." The "staff of life" is bread. Bread and water can be seen as basic essentials of life, so our Baker's home takes shape. This is not a modern day baker who uses packets and mixes, but one who buys his grain from an organic farm. It is then transported to the bakery by canal. Here the baker uses the "waters of life" to grind the grain into flour.
