Sourdough Bread Making Class
**Class sessions are split into two days, you must attend both!**
NEW DATES ADDED! Various dates in 2026, see below!

Come learn how to make your own homemade sourdough bread!

Sourdough Bread Making (a Little Science, a Lot of Flavor!)
 
Want to learn how to make awesome tasting bread using natural ingredients that are better for you than processed breads?

In this class, we will go over how to make starter which is the key to dough rising and the science behind it. You will leave with recipes for starter, as well as sourdough bread.

You will also receive a banneton, a jar for starter, and a scraper to take home with you! This class is hands on, so bring your apron!

Classes occur over the course of 2 days. The first day we will make bread and allow it to proof overnight, the second day we will do the baking of the bread.
