Through extensive hands-on learning, this workshop will teach a wide range of topics that include: starter care, the science behind sourdough, the preparation of levain and dough, the benefits (and disadvantages) of baking with industrial versus local grains, bread shaping, and more. The bulk of the workshop will be spent shaping, scoring and baking bread, and will conclude with a tasting.
Participants are given sourdough starter to take home with them. 
This advaned class is open to all levels of bread bakers, but be prepared to learn a lot of information in a short period of time!!
