Preserving the Summer Garden & Homestead Tour (NOFA-VT Summer Workshop Series Event)

Pre-registration required (limit 15)

This workshop will focus on canning, freezing, and dehydration techniques, with Margaret Osha and Melissa Komorowski of Turkey Hill Farm. We will learn which vegetable varieties make the best choices for each method of food preservation. We will demonstrate step-by-step canning and freezing, and finish with a tour of the homestead, including a raw milk micro-dairy, meat animals, vegetables, maple syrup and the Moo-tique, the farm store where all these products (and more!) are sold. Please bring a notebook.
