Join us at Gribblehirst Community Hub for a series of practical workshops to reduce food waste in your kitchen. Julie Craig from Oak and Thistle will share the magical art of making your fresh food last longer, using techniques you can replicate at home. Find out more about ferments, or taste your way through nut-free and dairy-free "nice" creams; there is something for everyone! All participants are invited to join Julie for an online Q&A session at the conclusion of this series to show-off their sauerkraut or get more advice. All classes will be held at Gribblehirst Community Hub on Thursday evenings from 6-8pm with the exception of the online session. Please note ticket sales for each class close 48 hours beforehand. Please contact [email protected] to see if there is space available.
Kombucha (25 July) Kombucha is a delicious fermented drink that can help activate your gut to absorb more nutrients. It contains beneficial enzymes and nutrients that can improve digestion and boost your gut flora and immunity. You will learn how to make kombucha and its secondary fermentation process, how to keep a SCOBY hotel, and the principles of prebiotic and probiotic processes. Participants receive a small SCOBY, starter liquid and a handout with brewing instructions to take home. What to bring: Medium sized jar with a screw lid
