Discover the Magic of Oregon Trail Sourdough

Join us for a fun and hands-on sourdough workshop at the Olmsted Community Center!

This session will be led by Shannon Asbury, co-owner of local microbakery Dough Mamas CLE. Shannon is a skilled baker who combines technical expertise with a creative touch to craft sourdough that’s as beautiful as it is delicious — nourishing both body and soul with every loaf.Whether you’re just getting started or looking to level up your bread game, this experience is perfect for bakers of all levels.

You’ll be working with a truly historic sourdough starter, traced back to the Oregon Trail in 1847—carefully preserved and passed down through generations for over 150 years.

What’s included:

  • A printed sourdough guide to take home
  • A fresh jar of Oregon Trail sourdough starter
  • Live demonstration of the full sourdough process—from starter to baked loaf
  • A cozy setting inside Olmsted Community Center - it's better then the typical farm pavillion spot, at least in March :)
  • Bread + butter tasting at the end!

When: Sunday, March 15, 2026

Time: 1:00 PM - 3:30 PM

Where: Olmsted Community Center, 8170 Mapleway Dr, Olmsted Falls, OH 44138

This 2.5-hour workshop is a great chance to connect with fellow baking enthusiasts, enjoy a relaxing afternoon, and leave with the skills (and starter) to keep baking at home.

Limited spots available—reserve yours today and take home a piece of sourdough history!
