Local with Lisa: Saturday Sourdough on Palm Drive

Rise & Shine Piedmont!
Have you heard about the Sourdough Stand on Palm Drive in Piedmont? I’ve been hearing about it for a while and decided to go check it out. I took my dog Lola, and we walked over to the most beautiful set-up on Jovie Strzelecki's lawn at 230 Palm Drive….
The pop-up on Jovie’s front lawn has only been happening for a couple months, but she’s been selling sourdough for 8 months and baking it now for 4.5-5 years.
From Hobby to Side Hustle
Jovie: It started as a hobby during the pandemic, and I just loved it. I love the science behind it, I love tinkering with different formulas.
The word has definitely gotten out, and Jovie sells out within a couple of hours.
Jovie: I bake classic sourdough. I bake flavors like garlic, sweet flavors like ube vanilla, I do whole grain varieties, seeded varieties, and I do some sandwich breads and pastries like cinnamon rolls, cardamon knots and sometimes scones.….
Jovie has a day job.
Jovie: I’m an audiologist so I work with people with hearing loss, hearing aids. So this is totally different.
Neighborhood Reaction
But you can find her on her front lawn selling her sourdough on Saturday.
What’s the reaction been from neighbors?
Jovie: So supportive so warm and so supportive and I’m so grateful.
