Welcome to Your Community Beginner Sourdough Workshop!

In just 2.5 to 3 hours, you’ll learn how to mix, shape, and prepare your own sourdough dough to bake at home — plus take home a live starter to keep your journey going. It’s fun, beginner-friendly, and designed to leave you feeling confident and inspired.
