  • You pick the time that suits you, we work around your schedule
  • You choose the types of bread you like to eat and make
  • We teach as home bakers
  • Learn how to achieve the best baking results with a domestic oven
  • At Make Bread sourdough classes, you aren’t just another participant: you’ll receive our full attention and your questions will be answered.

Learn how to maintain your sourdough starter and how to make one from scratch should you need to. We teach how to make several different types of bread, as well as how to make various types of bread from the same batch of dough using specific shaping and baking methods. The whole class is hands-on and you are actively involved in the process of bread making.

At the sourdough bread making class you can have all the time for yourself, or invite family members/friends to share a fun, hands-on bread making experience with you.
