Chap,

Yeast is in the air regardless if you bake or not.
It's a natural thing and it's air-borne everywhere.
That's from where yeast infections come, not just in bakeries.

Each location has its' own strain of yeast. That's why it is so hard to duplicate the famous San Francisco sourdough bread outside of SF.

Overall, yeast is a very neat organism.
Bread, wine, etc.
