In this episode of The Bread Winner Podcast, I sit down with Kala Hembree, a seasoned sourdough baker and workshop expert, to dive deep into the world of teaching bread-making workshops. Kala shares how she transitioned from selling at farmer's markets to leading successful workshops, helping others bake their own bread while building a strong community. Her unique approach to balancing business growth with genuine connection makes this conversation a must-listen for bakers looking to expand their business model.

Kala’s story is filled with inspiring moments, from her first class to the surprising realization that teaching workshops can actually strengthen community ties rather than create competition. We explore the practical aspects of hosting workshops, including Kala’s tips for managing logistics, pricing, and the unexpected benefits of building relationships with students. Whether you’re thinking about teaching workshops or just want to hear how one baker grew her business while staying true to her values, this episode is packed with actionable insights!
