Sage Dilts and Nathan Hodges of Barn Owl Bakery on Lopez Island, WA
[EP186]Published on: 12 April 2023
Moving to an island in the Pacific Northwest is not easy. Moving intentionally, with a view of contributing to the community is even more difficult. But Sage Dilts and Nathan Hodges have done just that with their farm and bakery on Lopez Island, Washington.
In this episode, Mark learns how Sage and Nathan met in grad school in the Bay Area, where Sage also developed her baking chops, how they found their way to Lopez Island and how the locals embraced their quest to make the best bread from the localist grains. And how Barn Owl Bakery is feeding their village. Alan Scott also makes recurring appearances in the journey, as a mentor and guide.
