Fermentation Workshop

It was a full kitchen at the Steinbach Arts Council as Andrea Wheeldon shared her knowledge about fermented food preservation. We learned about the economic, health, and culinary benefits of this ancient and too-often overlooked food preservation method (which, by the way we have to thank for wine, cheese, yogurt, sauerkraut, cured meats and pickles, among others). Thank you Andrea for an informative and enjoyable afternoon!

Local, Seasonal Supper - Sat. March 21

Soapmaking on a Sunny Day

We all enjoyed a wonderful Saturday morning learning how to make soap with Joey Peters. The beautiful spring sun poured in the window as we all gathered around to get a closer look on how to prepare the lye and heat the oils. He did an excellent job instructing us on how to safely manipulate the ingredients to achieve a succesful bar of soap. Thank you Joey!
