My Sourdough Story
I began my sourdough journey almost 10 years prior at a time when I was seeking whole foods and eliminating anything processed in our home kitchen. I made my first sourdough starter, Gary, who sat on the counter daily collecting the wild yeast in the enivornment of my tiny kitchen. As time went on Gary grew robust and became the sole source of bread within our kitchen. Eventually, Gary became more than a source of bread, as pasta, baked goods and crispy squares of focaccia began to emerge from our kitchen. Along with it, a deeper understanding of the process of sourdough baking and recipes to follow.
Those recipes are shared with thousands of devoted readers monthly and served locally to the many loyal bakery customers who order and frequent our farmstand on a weekly basis. Both the digital sourdough community and our local sourdough bakery continue to grow.
