Hands-on sourdough workshops in Denver, Colorado — from starter preservation to tasting experiences, bread making, scoring, and beyond. Every class rooted in three generations of baking tradition.
At The Living Jar, we believe sourdough is for everyone. Whether you've never touched a starter or you've been baking for years, our workshops meet you exactly where you are — with warmth, depth, and real technique.
Every class is led with the same care that goes into every loaf — slow, intentional, and alive with flavor. Come as you are and leave with something real.
Sourdough isn't just bread — it's a living culture, a family legacy, and the most honest thing I know how to make.

Using a living sourdough culture as your leavening base, you'll mix, knead, and shape your own pasta by hand in class, guided through every step of the process.
