Our Story

Rise Slow Sourdough began in our home kitchen in Sooke, BC, with a simple starter we nurtured from scratch and a curiosity for slow, traditional baking. What started as a few loaves for family and friends quickly grew into something more, leading us to our local farmers market where we could share our bread with the community.

We’re a mother-daughter team: mom is the baker behind every loaf, bagel, and treat, and daughter is the face at the market, connecting with customers and helping bring our little business to life each week.

Everything we make is rooted in patience, simplicity, and good ingredients. We believe in taking the slow road, and we’re so grateful to share that journey with our community.
