Description
Maybe you've got a prolific plum tree, or a friend up north with an apple orchard, or you just tend to go overboard when strawberry season hits at the farmer's market? This workshop will discuss how to make the most of seasonal fruit by preserving it into jam! We'll cover the basics of making homemade jam with a focus on making jam on the fly- adapting recipes for surplus fruit and adding your own special touches with ingredients from your garden and cupboard. We'll talk about fruit selection and preparation, adding herbs and spices, sweeteners and pectin, and canning vs. freezing. The workshop will conclude with a jam tasting and all participants will receive a jam how-to pamphlet.
