Saturday, April 11, 10:00 am – 12:00 noon – Introduction to Lacto-Fermentation – Postponed

Bill Goodwin is a chemical engineer who prefers to grow his own food and experiment with anything that might even look like food. He’s found that lacto-fermenting veggies from the garden is fun, simple and nutritious. He’s made delicious batches of krauts, pickles, fermented beets and kimchi, and wants to share what he’s learned with anyone who’s lost interest in coleslaw. In this April 11 Massachusetts Horticultural Society class we’ll wield knives and cut up unsuspecting vegetables, apply some salt and a bit of “scrunch” – and make batches of something delicious for everyone to take home.

Vegetables & workshop materials will be provided. The class takes place in the Putnam Building, 900 Washington Street in Wellesley, and you may register by visiting www.masshort.org. $55 members/$75 general admission
