Marble Springs State Historic Site

What a fun afternoon we had yesterday!

Thank you to Stephanie from SoKno Sourdough for leading an amazing sourdough workshop at Marble Springs. Participants learned all about sourdough starters, feeding schedules, discard, and the basics of making their own loaves at home.

We had a full house with lots of excitement from both first-time bakers and sourdough enthusiasts alike. It's always rewarding to see traditional skills being shared and kept alive in our community.

Keep an eye out for more Crafting America Workshops in the next couple of months!

We had a wonderful weekend hosting our Statehood Days 230th and 250th! Thank you to all of our partners and volunteers for making this event something to remember. We hope you had a great time visiting our partners and celebrating what makes Tennessee special. Come see us again sometime soon!

Ever wanted to go on a Sourdough journey? Join us this Saturday at 11:30am for a free workshop in collaboration with SoKno Sourdough. As part of our Crafting America series, participants can learn this traditional skill in a beginner friendly, modern way. Guests will also receive their own jar of starter, flour, and a loaf recipe to take home.
