Please join us at the Vermont Food Venture Center kitchens on August 10. Rebecca Beidler of Peace Of Earth Farm in Albany will lead a workshop in fermenting vegetables, with taste tests.    

Participants will learn about ratios, methods and recipes for successful fermenting of various veggies and be able to taste some samples. Each person will take home a pint of chopped veggies to ferment at home. Rebecca Beidler grows berries, vegetables, fruits and mushrooms at her farm and enjoys fermenting and eating fermented foods. 

Please pre-register by August 7 as space is limited. As always with Grow Your Own workshops, there will be time for sharing your own ideas, successes, and challenges, and questions and just in general camaraderie among those of us who love to cook and garden and preserve! Grow Your Own is a project of the Hardwick Area Food Pantry and the Center for an Agricultural Economy. The mission of Grow Your Own is to increase community food independence and wellbeing through shared skills, knowledge and experience. Workshops are always free. Donations are gratefully accepted online when you register. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Bethany at: bethany@caevt.org
