Sourdough in the Smokies Retreat

Bake alongside Jonathan Stevens, former owner of Hungry Ghost Bread, in partnership with Sourhouse. This year we're going back to the hearth: colonial loaves, heritage grains, and early American techniques, plus bolted wheat bread, herbed white bread, scones, and fougasse. Open to new and returning bakers, with hikes, hydrotherapy, and fireside evenings between bakes.

APRIL 15 - APRIL 19, 2027

Sourdough in the Smokies Retreat II

A second chance to spend a weekend learning bread the old way. Jonathan Stevens and Sourhouse lead hands-on sessions from starter to finished loaf, with a new focus on hearth baking and the methods colonial bakers relied on. Whether you've never fed a starter or joined us in 2026, you'll leave with new skills and a few days of rest in the Blue Ridge.
