Join the sourdough revolution in Nashville

The bread type is reaching new heights in popularity, and we’re here to help you find the best loves in Music City, or start making your own.

Sourdough can blur the line between art and food.

Sourdough is soaring in popularity, and so is interest in making your own.

If you’re among those baking some new habits into your life via flour and yeast, here are a few ways to get in on the action in Nashville:

  • Hoamsy hosts frequent classes for beginners in Germantown — the perfect way to get newbies introduced to the process alongside instructor Ben Bahil.
  • Once you’re ready to take your skills further, snag a spot at one of Sourdough Mama‘s comprehensive workshops.
  • Or get in touch with Eat the Art for an intimate three-hour, by-appointment-only intro to the practice.

For those who prefer their loaves made by an expert, there are a bunch of spots around town to get your fill of doughy goodness. We’re fans of Baked & Free’s rotating seasonal selections, the pumpkin jalapeno sourdough loaves from Dozen Bakery, and Mrs. Sourdough’s spectacular Everything Bagel Sourdough Bread.
