Bring your lunch and join us online for a seasonal learning series in food preservation! This short “lunch and learn” program meets on the third Thursday of each month from 12–1 p.m., with each class focusing on a timely topic: making delicious food gifts, exploring winter fermentation, and planning your garden with preservation in mind.
Classes are taught by Jennie Bryan-Goforth, WSU Food Preservation Instructor, a longtime food preserver and organic farmer who brings both expertise and hands-on experience to every session. All classes are recorded for later viewing, and participants receive access to a comprehensive online collection of WSU publications, recipes, and materials to support safe, creative preservation at home. Each class is $20, or take all three for $45. We do have some need based scholarship options, feel free to reach out to j.bryan-goforth@wsu.edu for more information.
