objective
Teaching people how to safely & deliciously preserve food using expert fermentation techniques

The incredible Nicole Morris (Rogue Kale on Substack) delivered her in-depth 2-hour lacto-fermentation workshop for a group of 8 participants. The purpose of this workshop was to equip LSI's community members with the knowledge and skills necessary to preserve their garden harvests, thus enabling greater food security and homesteading skills for participants. Tickets to the workshop were offered on a sliding scale basis.

When communities know how to grow, harvest, and preserve their own food, they become more resilient to fluctuations in food supply chains and the increasing cost of basic necessities. Food produced at the LSI gardens—including peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggs—were given away by donation. Also provided by donation was a "Cook What You Grow" cookbook, developed by LSI founder David Braden, regarding how to prepare, preserve, and eat the kinds of foods grown in our gardens.

Here are additional images from the event:
