Workshop Capacity: 20

Discover the magic of sourdough through the art of focaccia decorating as we celebrate the Spring Equinox a time of balance, renewal, and fresh beginnings. In this hands-on workshop, we’ll awaken and feed a lively sourdough starter, which you’ll take home to begin your own sourdough journey.

You’ll also learn how to mix focaccia dough, then decorate a pre-made focaccia using a beautiful assortment of fresh vegetables, herbs, and colorful toppings inspired by the season. This workshop is all about creativity, texture, and expression. No two focaccias look alike, and each finished loaf becomes an edible work of art you’ll bake at home.

Join us for a whimsical, relaxed workshop where sourdough meets creativity and the energy of the Spring Equinox sets the tone. You’ll leave with your decorated focaccia, mixed focaccia dough, your own sourdough starter, and the confidence to continue the magic in your own kitchen.
