Workshop Review: The Joy of Pickling

Thank you for coming out to the pickling workshop on June 25!

A lucky group, under the skilled eye of Andrea Potter, got the lowdown on basic techniques for fermenting vegetables and brining pickles at home and also took home samples and pickling starter goodies.
