Small place, big sourdough journey

From Princeton, British Columbia, to your kitchen

Squirrelly Girl Starter begins in a working Canadian micro-bakery where sourdough is part of the regular rhythm—not a product invented in a boardroom.

The culture is maintained, carefully dehydrated and packaged for its journey. Once it reaches you, flour, water and the included instructions help wake it from its travel-friendly rest.

Why origin matters

More than “made in Canada” on a label

This starter carries a clear connection to the place and bakery routine where it is maintained.

🍁

Canadian identity

The culture is maintained and prepared in Princeton, British Columbia, giving it a genuine Canadian origin.

Working bakery roots

It comes from a micro-bakery environment where sourdough is handled as part of real baking work.

Personal-scale care

A micro-bakery approach keeps the story connected to the people, place and baking culture behind the product.

Established culture

You receive a dehydrated portion of an existing culture rather than beginning a brand-new starter from flour and water.

Ready to travel

Dehydration pauses activity, making the culture compact and practical to send to home bakers around the world.

1

Beginner-friendly start

Clear activation instructions help new and experienced bakers confidently bring the culture back to activity.

What “micro-bakery” means here

A starter connected to everyday baking

“Micro-bakery” describes the small-scale working bakery setting where Squirrelly Girl Starter is maintained. It means the culture is tied to an identifiable Canadian place and a real sourdough baking routine.

It does not mean your starter will arrive active in a wet jar. It is intentionally dehydrated so it can travel efficiently and wait until you are ready to begin activation.

Canadian care, activation confidence

Covered by our 100% Activation Guarantee

Follow the supplied instructions and provide the recommended activation care. If your starter does not activate properly, our guarantee provides a replacement or a full refund.
