A gentle afternoon of slow baking and nourishment.
Join us at 11 Acre Farm for The Joy of Rakukenji Bread — a hands-on workshop exploring the art of naturally leavened bread made from fruit and veggie starters.
Inspired by a monk from a temple in Nara Prefecture, Japan, Rakukenji bread is soft, fluffy, and full of natural goodness. Instead of commercial yeast, we’ll use homemade fermentations from apples, carrots and potatoes — harnessing wild yeast and the nutrients of fresh produce to create truly wholesome bread.
What You’ll Learn:
How to make your own fruit & veggie yeast starter
How to mix, shape and bake fluffy round bread rolls
A no-knead, no-fuss method you can use at home
Tips for turning this versatile dough into buns, rolls, and loaves
You’ll Take Home:
Your own yeast starter (2L container required)
Freshly baked bread
Dough you’ve made in class (1L container required)
Full printed recipe and notes
🍵 What’s Included:
A choice of welcome tea (hot or cold, Matcha or Hojicha)
Bread tasting
Light dinner refreshments including tsukemono (pickles)
This workshop is about slowing down, connecting with your food, and enjoying the rhythm of natural fermentation. No prior baking experience needed — just curiosity and a love of bread.
