Join us for a free Heritage Food Series workshop on Wednesday, November 18, from 3 to 5 PM at the Collingwood Youth Centre.
Before supermarkets and freezers, families relied on a variety of traditional methods to preserve food and make the harvest last through the winter. Discover the history and practical uses of food preservation techniques such as root cellaring, drying, fermenting, pickling, canning and freezing.
Participants will enjoy a hands on cooking and preservation activity, prepare and taste different foods together, and take home a little treat. Along the way, share stories, exchange knowledge and discover how traditional food skills can still be useful today. Registration is required.
