“Science of Bread” class
John C. Campbell Folk School, Brasstown, NC
My week-long bread class (description here). The registration link for all my Folk School classes is below this list.
Note, this class fills really quickly! You can get on a waitlist after it fills. If you’re trying to get into any Folk School class, online registration opens sooner than “print catalog” registration, and subscribing to the Folk School’s emails will get you the earliest notification. In 2027, I will be teaching in May and November.
