Participants will learn how to cultivate vegetables and herbs in small spaces while also understanding how to grow food in a changing climate using sustainable practices. The workshops are always tailored to the season, emphasizing what can be grown during that time. Private gardening workshops for teams can also be accommodated.
Fermentation Workshops
Discover the joys of fermenting vegetables! Fermentation workshops teach participants the basics of vegetable fermentation, discuss its benefits, and explore different methods through practical exercises. Participants will get to ferment seasonal vegetables, taste a variety of fermented foods, and take home their own batch. Not only is fermenting vegetables enjoyable and cost-effective, but it also helps reduce waste and preserve food. It's a valuable hobby and skill to have!
