About Preservation Basics: Pick and Pickle!

Preserve the bounty of the season in a crisp way in this hands-on pickling class! Join Farm Institute Culinary Educator for a walk through the Friendship Garden to pick produce at the height of the season! Then join us in the kitchen for a hands-on class on making your own brine and tips and tricks for pickling all sorts of summer veg! This class will cover both refrigerator pickle methods as well as water bath canning. Exact recipes will be based on what is available in our Friendship Garden. Each participant will take home a jar of refrigerator pickles.

This class is geared for beginners. Children ages 8 and up are welcome to attend with an adult but must also purchase a ticket.
