The class is 2.5 hours long, and you'll leave with your own healthy starter, starter kit if selected (see details below!), a detailed guide with ongoing support after class, and all the confidence you need to make your own sourdough! You will also leave with your own mixed, shaped loaf to take home and bake the next day!

About the teacher:
The Flour Garden Sourdough Microbakery was created in fall of 2024 by Ashley, a mom of two energetic boys with a deep passion for cooking and baking. From the moment she first discovered the art of sourdough, she knew she wanted to share this joy with her community. Her goal is to create not just delicious loaves, but beautiful culinary experiences that celebrate both design and flavor. She’s excited to bring her love for artisan sourdough to life, crafting unique breads that nourish both the body and the soul. Ashley is one of our Lancaster Farmers Market vendors, and she can’t wait to share her knowledge and creations with you!
