Massachusetts Food Preservation Workshop Day is scheduled for September 19, 2009.
I'm linking to the Northeast Organic Farmer’s Association/Massachusetts (NOFA) page for it today because many of the events have limited capacity and you need to reserve now. Click here for the NOFA information page.
The association says, "This fall as the local harvest peaks and thoughts shift toward winter eating, NOFA/Mass presents our first annual statewide Fall Food Preservation Day. On September 19, there will be food preservation workshops spread throughout the state.
Preserving food that we grow or purchase locally at the height of its freshness and flavor can save money, lessen our dependence on the global corporate food chain, and provide wonderful flavor and real food all year round. Isn't now a good time to learn skills to do this?"
Thanks to the Garden Club of the Back Bay for making me aware of this event. If you're a lover of local food, (even if you're not a gardener) you should sign up for their rss feed. They highlight lots of events that BostonZest readers would enjoy.
