Elderberry is a fruit with antioxidants and vitamins that may boost your immune system and help with cold and flu symptoms. Even better--it's native! Join MCMGA and Erin with Heart and Soul Naturals in an "All About Elderberries" presentation covering the benefits, lifecycle, and uses for elderberries.
During the presentation, attendees will also learn how to make their own elderberry syrup. For an added price, attendees can put together a kit of ingredients for the elderberry syrup to make themselves at their home. The kit includes: all organic Elderberries, goji berries, rose hips, ginger root, cinnamon sticks & whole cloves. Also includes all organic reusable cheesecloth. Any allergens may be omitted from individual's kits.
Two options are available: the aforementioned items with a 16oz jar of locally sourced raw honey for $35 OR the aforementioned items without honey for $20 where one would supply their own honey when making the syrup. Both kits make a final product of 32oz.
As Erin and her team need time to properly source ingredients for us, the sign-up deadline and payment for the syrup optiions is due October 31st Cash or checks made payable to MCMGA will be accepted at the October 10th meeting. Members can also mail checks to our P. O. Box. by 10/31/2024. Payments accepted on our website (see buttons below).
RSVPs to register for the meeting are due November 20 th. Free for MCMGA members. $10 donation for others.
