Welcome to “The Grange Podcast,” where we strive to rekindle
the spirit of community and belonging. Our mission is simple yet profound: to
foster transparent communication and share valuable information that brings us
closer together. Join us as we explore stories, insights, and conversations with
the intent of building a stronger, more connected community, one episode at a
time.
Today, my guest is Tam Smith of Small Batch Sourdough. Tam
is a wife, mother, and small business owner in Northport, WA. During our conversation, we explored the
journey of baking sourdough, homesteading, and building a community-focused
business. Tam shares personal anecdotes about family life, resilience through
adversity, and the passion for baking that led to the creation of her bakery. We
also touch on her entrepreneurial journey, emphasizing the importance of
vulnerability, community support, and challenges in building a small business.
Tam’s energy and passion are genuinely pure and contagious, and I am very
fortunate to have her as a guest on the podcast today. If you are interested in
supporting Small Batch Sourdough and indulging in some of the best bread you’ve
ever had, you can pick up a loaf at Crandall’s Coffee, Harvest Foods, Super 1,
Big Al’s coffee shop, or fresh out of the oven on Tuesday’s at the Northern
Provisions in Northport.
