As much as I love baking sourdough bread it is a lot of work. The process begins on Tuesday evening and doesn’t end until Saturday afternoon. I feed the starter Tuesday and Wednesday…which only takes a few minutes…but then Thursday is busy with dough prep, Friday is an entire day of baking and then Saturday starts as early as 5:30am to get ready for market. Right now my maximum capacity is 24 loaves of bread (an 8 hour bake day)…at $6 per loaf even if I sell out it’s only $144. Not bad until you consider the roughly 24+ hours of labor that I can’t spend doing other things (animal care, gardening, writing, etc). And, if I don’t sell out I bring home a product I can’t save to sell next week. I’ve been working on other offerings that include skin/lip balm, soap, reusable/repurposed market bags, growing herbs year-round and, of course, home-roasted coffee. […]
