Using Local Foods: Pickled Ginger

Discover the vibrant flavor and satisfying craft of making your own pickled ginger—also known as gari—in a hands-on workshop featuring fresh young ginger grown right here in our high tunnel. This unique class invites participants to explore the culinary traditions behind this beloved Japanese condiment while creating a jar to take home and enjoy. Whether you’re a sushi lover, home cook, fermentation enthusiast, or simply curious about working with seasonal farm-grown produce, this workshop offers a flavorful and fun culinary adventure. Class will be held at the Currituck Extension Center from 1-3pm on December 10th, 2025. The class fee of $10 will cover class material, produce, and the jars of gari that you will be taking home and eating.
