A Little Magic from Knead & Nettle

Every witch needs a familiar… why not one that makes bread?

Meet our 5-year-old heirloom sourdough starter, lovingly passed down from my uncle and kept alive through years of feeding, flour, and a little kitchen witchery!

Carefully dehydrated to preserve its magic, this little familiar can awaken from its slumber and come bubbling back to life in as little as 48 hours!

Now, we’re ready to share a little piece of our family hearth with yours.

Adopt Your Very Own Sourdough Familiar!

Take it home, wake it up, feed it, and watch the magic grow. With a little love and care, your new familiar could become a family heirloom of its own, passed down for generations.

Knead & Nettle — Where Wild Yeast Meets Witchcraft.
Feed the magic. Keep the tradition alive.
