Ron Siegel worked in the restaurant industry in the mid 90's, before leaving to pursue sourdough baking. Always the perfectionist, Ron began practicing baking out of his own garage.

"You'll be a baker When Pigs Fly!"
Yet Ron persisted, eventually nurturing the very same sourdough starter that we still use today!
