Veggie Service Tuesday 20th May and Preservation Classes

[Julia Farmer]

Hallo Dear Friends 

Thank you for the orders I received last week and to those who came to the BSCPA Mother's Day event. I am looking forward to tomorrow's Advanced organic workshop with 6 eager participants!

Preservation classes at Kingfisher Farm

My next lot of classes are on Preservation and this the perfect time to preserve your summer produce or locally grown vegetables and fruits. In the preservation classes we will cover dehydration methods, chutney and relish making, jam and marmalade making and more. The classes are partly demonstration but you will also take part in making of some your favourite recipes (you get to take samples and recipes home too!). There are a limited number of spaces available. Please see the attached poster and for more information or to book your place please contact the Julia on Whatsapp 71726027. Thank you. 🍆🍅🍊🍍🫑🍎
