Bake & Connect: Sourdough Bread-Making Workshop (and more!)

Bake & Connect: Sourdough Bread-Making Workshop 🍞

This hands-on, 3-hour workshop invites participants to learn the art and science of sourdough bread-making. Attendees will work through every step of creating a perfect loaf at home, including how to care for and activate a starter, and how to bake other treats beyond bread.

The workshop is designed as much for connection as for baking. Participants will meet new people, share food and conversation, and enjoy several tastings and snacks throughout the afternoon.

Freshly baked sourdough bread will be paired with dips (such as hummus) and finger foods. Sourdough scones will be served with freshly brewed Colombian coffee; attendees will also learn about high-quality coffee beans and have the option to purchase some to take home.

Monica, founder of Elixir Vitae, will guide the group through premium olive oil, explaining the three key elements that define true extra virgin olive oil. Attendees will taste her oil with fresh bread and can purchase bottles at a special event price.

Each participant receives a complete recipe sheet for sourdough bread and scones, plus their own sourdough starter to continue baking at home. A take-home reference sheet on olive oil selection is also included.

Bring a notebook and pen if you wish to take extra notes during the workshop.

Parking: Street parking is available nearby; additional parking is located at the back of the coffee shop, accessed from Marine Drive, with a back entrance to the venue. Allow extra time to find parking and arrive on time.
