Focaccia & Friends

There’s nothing more joyful than baking bread with friends — especially when olive oil is at the center. In Focaccia & Friends, you’ll learn the art of making traditional Italian focaccia in a relaxed, hands-on workshop designed for bread lovers and home bakers alike.


Together, we’ll mix, knead, and shape artisan-style focaccia dough, finishing it with farm-fresh toppings and a generous pour of our signature extra virgin olive oil. You’ll take your dough home to bake fresh during it's second rise — filling your kitchen with that unmistakable aroma of warm bread and olive oil.

Why It’s Special
Focaccia is meant to be shared — torn, dipped, and enjoyed together. This workshop brings people around the table to learn a timeless Italian bread that’s simple, forgiving, and endlessly delicious.

Who It's For
Perfect for friends, couples, and anyone who loves baking bread or wants to learn. No experience necessary — this class is approachable, social, and full of flavor.
