Jams and Jellies

This workshop will show how to preserve fresh seasonal fruits to enjoy as a sweet treat all year long. It is intended for Leicester-area residents. 

Jasmine Reahard from Big Briar Botanicals will teach the fundamental ingredients & techniques to create a range of jams & jellies. We'll learn which fruits are in season when, and where to purchase from local farms & markets! Each participant will be supplied with tried & true recipes, and will be able to take home preserves made in this hands-on class.

This is the first of the Leicester Food Coalition's Community Resiliency Food Preparation and Preservation Workshop Series. These workshops are led by local experts, using local produce to support regional farms, and designed to set up the participants for continued success at a home and community level.

This event is free to attend, but space is limited. If you sign-up then please make a stong commitment to attending. Please only sign up if you consider yourself a Leicester area resident (Alexander, Leicester, Newfound, Dix Creek, Sandy Mush).
