Nothing tastes as good as home-baked sourdough! Join us on the farm from 9:00 am - 3:00 pm on select dates in 2025, to learn the basics of creating this staple in any kitchen or homestead.
The workshop will cover:
• What a Starter Culture is
• How to care for your Starter
• Health benefits of sourdough
• All the different variables that affect sourdough
• What you *kneed* to make a sourdough loaf
• How to make a sourdough loaf from start to finish
Participants will start from scratch, get to the point of shaping dough and have it ready to take home with them in a Banneton Basket. Participants will be able to take their prepared dough to bake at home. Everyone will leave the workshop with: A baked loaf of sourdough, dough they shaped in the workshop, Banneton Basket, razor blade for scoring, dehydrated starter, and a how to guide.

About your presenters, Justin & Becca Ethridge:
"My wife, Becca, and I lived in Atlanta for twenty years before deciding to leave and move to Morris, GA in 2023. I worked in retail management with 11 years at Starbucks Coffee Co and 6 years at Trader Joe's being the bulk of my career. Becca, who also worked for Starbucks and Trader Joe's, got her first break in baking at a local bakery in Decatur. Here she learned how to apply her basic knowledge of baking on a larger scale. She also increased her skill set by working with more French pastry and breads." - Justin
Hungry Homesteads mission is: to supply quality, additive free, and affordable baked goods to our community.
