Fall Foraging & wild brews
Brew the better way.
Fall is a time of abundance! Discover wild edibles of the southern Appalachian region. This class will focus on plant identification, safe and sustainable foraging practices, recipes and more. After spending time exploring wild foods growing at Turtle Island Preserve, we will gather and create fermented drinks from foraged ingredients. Explore various natural flavors through roots, shoots, bark, leaves and more. This is a great introduction to using wild yeasts, as fermentation has been a staple of food preservation for years. Each participant will take home a bottle of their own concoction to let ferment before enjoying. All materials provided.
