A born and raised Vermonter set off for adventure and a career outdoors, eventually settling on a mountainside in Alaska. Recognizing a familiar love for sourdough in both Vermont and Alaska, he established Frontiersman Sourdough as a way to make the craft of sourdough baking accessible to everyone.
Our Sourdough Starter:
Our wild sourdough starter is cultivated in Alaska, shelf stable, made with 100% organic ingredients, and packaged in biodegradable pouches. The stable nature of our yeast allows you to activate your starter and begin working with sourdough at your convenience; next week or years from now.
Sourdough History in Alaska:
The early 'frontiersmen' that came to Alaska maintained a sourdough starter to leaven their bread.
Frontiersmen in Alaska would wear a pouch of starter around their neck to keep it from freezing in the cold Alaskan winter nights. Today, old, grizzled Alaskans are known as "Sourdoughs" in homage to the prospectors, miners, and trappers that explored Alaska.
Charitable Giving
Environmental conservation is a founding tenet of Frontiersman Sourdough. A portion of our profits go towards protecting Alaska's wild natural environment; an awe inspiring landscape of mountains, glaciers, rivers, seas, forests, tundra, and rich wildlife that are all invaluable.
