This amazing starter traces its roots back to the San Francisco gold rush (really!!) but has been living and mingling with Kensington Markets eclectic denizens for the past several years. It’s been in continuous use since 1850! 

This starter makes great bread. See our reviews below!! 

Each order includes a packet of dry starter along with detailed instructions for activating and maintaining the starter, as well as links to some great recipes!  It’s pretty fool proof and you will be baking amazing loaves in no time.

We work really hard to keep this incredible starter happy and healthy, and we hope you will love it as much as we do. Happy baking!

Worked beyond my wildest dreams

This starter was so easy to get going and I followed their suggestion on the going to the Weekend Bakery for the first recipe. Super great people answered my email of panic over my over achieving starter on day 3. Highly recommend
