Join us at Stone Soup Books for a hands-on experience where you'll learn about fire cider vinegar and craft your own fire cider blend. No previous experience necessary! This workshop is perfect for those looking to gain knowledge of herbal remedies, understand the benefits of fire cider, and ignite their own herbal creativity. Making Fire Cider is a great way to connect with the rythms of the season. Come and connect with others who are curious about herbalism and discover the art of making this traditional winter tonic. As the season changes this is the ideal time to begin brewing our own kitchen remedies to support our health and wellbeing! A warm and nourishing herbal tea will be provided and relevant herbal books will be available to purchase for continued learning.
Materials provided for each participant: Pint sized ball jar, organic apple cider vinegar, a variety of ingredients including vegetables and herbs for fire cider blending, & labels.
