Potluck and Preserved Foods Swap
Saturday, October 22 / 1pm to 2pm
Come together to eat and share nourishing food with your community. Bring a dish to share. You're also invited to bring jars of home preserved foods that you might want to swap and share with other local homesteaders. Do you have an abundance of plum jam, but craving apple sauce? Let's share the abundance in our lives with one another. Did you notice? This is happening immediately after this workshop and before the October volunteer work party.
