Our 2009 CIRCLES Luncheon speaker is Patricia Barnes, who is the founder and vice president of product development and manufacturing for Sister Schubert's Homemade Rolls, a subsidiary of Lancaster Colony's T. Marzetti Co. specialty foods division. In 1992, Barnes founded Sister Schubert's Homemade Rolls as a home-based business using her grandmother's heirloom roll recipe. With the guidance of food broker George Barnes, she led the company through several years of explosive growth, opening a state-of-the-art bakery and expanding production to more than a million rolls a day. The couple married in 1995. They sold the stock of the company to Lancaster Colony Corporation in 2000 but continue to oversee operations of Sister Schubert's Homemade Rolls. In addition to her leadership role at Sister Schubert's, Barnes serves as Culinary Ambassador for the State of Alabama and sits on the Board of Directors of the Alabama Women's Hall of Fame. She was presented the Woman of Achievement Award at the 2005 Kappa Delta sorority convention. The author of Sister Schubert's Secret Bread Recipes, published in 1996 by Oxmoor House, Barnes is currently working on two new cookbooks. A strong supporter of education, Barnes serves Auburn University as a Visiting Executive in the Lowder School of Business, as a member of the Women's Philanthropy Board and as a member of the Dean's Board of the School of Human Sciences. She has participated in the Ben H. Williams Distinguished Speaker Series at Baylor University and sits on the Foundation Board at Troy University. Today, Barnes resides in Andalusia, Ala. with her husband and children.
