Join us for a day in our yurt learning how to preserve all of the amazing produce that you have put so much effort into growing.

​

We look at the multitude of ways to preserve your foods, including:

Jams and chutneys

Fruit leather

Dehydrating techniques

Jerkey

Salting and curing

Crystallising

Fermentation

Freezing and vacuum packing

Storage - including clamping and sand boxes

​

We will make jam, chutney, use dehydrating techniques to produce intensely flavoured dried fruits (perfect for with your breakfast granola), produce a fruit cordial and then salt and cure a piece of belly pork for bacon. 

​

We will discuss all of the different methods of preserving and the equipment that you may need.

​

Courses include tea, coffee and pastries on arrival, a glorious lunch then tea, coffee and cake in the afternoon.

​

You will take home your piece of belly pork to finish of curing at home, jam, chutney, recipe cards and hopefully a big smile and huge sense of achievement!

​

Courses run from 9:30 - 16:30

​

Our course numbers are kept small to ensure that you get the most from the day.
