Sourdough Workshop
Sourdough Workshop at Solstice Farm
Spend a summer evening at Solstice Farm learning the art of sourdough in a relaxed, hands on workshop surrounded by the beauty of the farm.
Whether you’re completely new to sourdough or have been wanting to build your confidence, this workshop will teach you the fundamentals to help you successfully bake at home. You’ll mix your own dough from scratch, learn proper feeding and care for your starter, practice stretch and folds, and leave with everything you need to continue your sourdough journey.
As your dough rests between steps, enjoy a guided tour of the farm, create a seasonal bouquet to take home, and relax with light bites and refreshing drinks.
You will take your prepped sourdough home after the workshop to bulk rise and be cooked the next day. You will also learn how to shape and prep your dough for baking.
Your ticket includes:
• Complete sourdough kit
• Digital food scale
• Mixing supplies
• Active sourdough starter
