HEY🌷Come hang with us at .and.grow.market this weekend!! This unique market isn’t just about fun spring shopping with local artisans (although that WILL be amazing 🤩 ), but also about connecting with these makers and learning about how to incorporate holistic, sustainable, and self-sufficient practices into your daily life.

I am thrilled to participate in this event as both a vendor (get your bread fix!) and an educator on how you can start making your own sourdough at home. Whether you get it from me, another local baker, or make it yourself, knowing where your bread comes from is a crucial step for your personal food independence. Check out our class and many other amazing classes that will be taking place during the Gather & Grow Market this Friday and Saturday at the Kootenai County Fairgrounds! 💛🙏🏽🌈

For two years now, JoHannah has done her part to nurture a circular economy in the Silver Valley through her business, Silver Valley Sourdough. She also shares her wisdom (and sourdough starter) by hosting sourdough making classes.
