Due to the high demand of the sourdough classes, NACE has added new combined sessions of Kayla Day's Sourdough classes! ☺️

101: Starting the Starter  |  6 - 7:30pm
Have you ever wanted to learn how to make your own sourdough bread from start to finish? NACE is excited to welcome the owner and baker of Little Acre Farm, Kayla Day, to our Winter/Spring 2025 classes!

In this introduction to making sourdough, Kayla will teach you how to make your own starter from scratch, including initially starting the dough and feeding and maintaining the dough until it is ready to be baked. She will go over common issues that can arise from making sourdough starters and show you what each stage of the dough should look/smell like. You will leave the class with your own starter dough that you will feed until it is ready for baking. The cost of this class includes everything to get started.


102: Ready. Set. BAKE!   |   6 - 8pm
Now that you have learned the art of making your own sourdough starters, it’s time to see the different things that you can bake with it! If you took Kayla’s Sourdough 101 class and have a starter that is ready to bake you can bring it to class or purchase a starter before the class. In this class you will learn different mixing and folding techniques to get the perfect bread. You will also learn how to take any excess dough you may have and see what you can make with it. Kayla will have dough ready to bake in class and you will get to take home the loaves made to bake at home.
