Members can still enter to run for any board position or sign up for a chair position by emailing Paula Olesen at ApolloBeachGardenClub@gmail.com. There can be more than one chairperson for a category and members are encouraged to seek additional information ahead of our membership meeting. Volunteering for a chair position is the best path to board leadership roles where members can learn and grow with the organization.
Directly following our membership meeting, guest speaker and garden member Mike Noble will guide us on how to turn everyday ingredients into a living, bubbly starter and teach us the art of shaping truly great dough.
This hands-on session focuses on the dough work itself through dough folding demonstrations. Come get comfortable with the feel of the dough, learn how folds build structure, and take home tips you can use long after class ends. There’s no baking during the class, so you can fully enjoy the learning, the flour-dusted fun, and the satisfaction of learning the steps before the oven ever comes into play. There will be very tasty samples available for all to enjoy.
Bring your curiosity and come ready to fold, learn, and leave with fresh confidence—plus a path to your own sourdough journey at home.
