Sourdough Workshops

LEARN. CREATE. GATHER.

Workshops are held in my home in Buderim the Sunshine Coast. In one hands-on session you'll learn to shape and bake your own sourdough loaf from scratch, discover what to do with leftover starter (think crumpets and crackers), and leave with a recipe book and starter culture of your own to keep baking at home.

You have the option of purchasing just a class ticket or a basic or premium package with more goodies to continue your baking journey. 

Upcoming Workshops

The Experience

More than a baking class

From the moment you arrive, you will be warmly welcomed by our team and invited to settle in with a cup of tea or coffee. Enjoy freshly toasted sourdough crumpets served with organic butter and jam as you begin your day in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.

The workshop will commence promptly at 9:00am and conclude no later than 2:00pm.

Throughout the day, you will learn to create your own sourdough dough from scratch using hands-on techniques and an interactive teaching style that engages all your senses. With guidance and encouragement, you will mix, shape, and nurture your dough with confidence.

Once your dough has been through its final shaping, it will be ready to take home and rest in the fridge overnight, allowing the fermentation process to continue developing its beautiful flavour. Your loaf will then be ready to bake and enjoy the following day.

In addition to making your own dough, you will enjoy demonstrations of other delicious sourdough creations, including sourdough crackers and cinnamon scrolls.

A thoughtfully curated grazing platter will be served for lunch, followed by freshly baked cinnamon scrolls topped with cream cheese frosting for dessert.

This workshop is more than just a baking class — it is a memorable day of learning, creating, and gathering. You will leave not only with a valuable new skill, but also with the confidence to bless yourself and others through the joy of homemade sourdough.

"I did the sourdough workshop which I really enjoyed. The venue was in Megan’s home so of course was cosy and homey rather than a sterile workshop building.

I enjoyed the fact that you saw the whole process through with the ability to take home a sourdough loaf to bake. Other workshops I’d been to went for two hours and just told you what you should do which then became quite confusing when you got home.

I also loved that you could buy bits through Megan’s little ‘shop’ to start immediately. I didn’t realise how useful that would be, until I got home baked my bread and used the thermometer immediately to see if it had baked enough.

As far as Megans way of baking sourdough - I found her method a lot simpler and easier than workshops I’d been to previously. My first loaf wasn’t exactly the prettiest - but it tasted great and certainly is then motivation to try again!

Take a charged phone with you and video Megan teaching. Her voice is soothing and calming and transpires well when explaining the steps.

Even though there was a lot packed into the day - it didn’t feel rushed. Definitely worth doing a day course."
