We are very lucky indeed to have Louise frazier, one of the country’s leading authorities on Lacto Fermentation, living in our region and teaching this workshop at the Phoenix Center on the beautiful farm/campus of Triform.

The Art of Lacto Fermentation and Simple & Good Whole Grain Cookery workshops can be taken individually or in series. Each class stands alone, Part 1 will focus on traditional fermentation techniques, Part 2 will reference what was covered in Part 1 but will focus on the seasonal use of all food with an emphasis on delicious whole grains. We have deeply discounted the ticket in the hopes that you will be able to attend both. To register for both, please go to  http://regionalfarmandfoodfermentation-rss.eventbrite.com.

Louise Frazier, Author of LOUISE'S LEAVES, Around the Calendar With Local Garden Vegetables, a vegetable-herb + whole grain cookery chart, conducts cookery workshops emphasizing seasonal vegetables, complementary herbs, and whole grains. She operated a vegetarian restaurant in Cologne, Germany, then helped develop Sunways CSA Farm in Massachusetts, and in 1990 traveled to Sweden on a grant from the Biodynamic Association of America to learn first-hand the art of Lactic-acid fermentation of vegetables.

***********************************************************************************************

These workshops are deliberately designed to be low tech and home-scale and emphasize hands-on-learning so that you can easily incorporate these kitchen arts into your daily or weekly routines. All food demonstrations will send you home with lots of information and samples, when possible. Please peruse the entire schedule - you may want to take more than one!

Annual RFFP membership is $50 and will discount all upcoming events and classes. Discounts are offered for farmers, students and seniors of $30 and $60 for both, please use the info email to inquire. We are trying to keep these events as affordable as possible without compromising our teaching staff or materials. We are keeping these classes small and they will be filled on a first come, first served basis. Any questions, please contact info@farmandfood.org.

Let's have some fun!
