Workshop Review: The Joy of Pickling

Thank you all for coming out to the second Joy of Pickling workshop on July 25!

It's a little late coming, but here's the review, for interested parties -- and as usual, a few pictures from the day of.

For those who missed the first workshop in June, Andrea Potter returned to teach another group of students about fermentation as a way of preserving food and about the health benefits that come with eating pickled foods.

At the end of the night, everyone took home a sample of sauerkraut -- and the confidence to delve into fermentation at home with the skills they learned.

The event overall was a success, and thank you to all attendees who helped make it an amazing evening!
