Winter Fare Workshops

The Greenfield Winter Fare is coming up on Saturday, February 6 at Greenfield High School from 10-2. Last year it reportedly attracted 800-1,000 people, and I would expect at least that many this year. Apparently the Northampton Winter Fare brought in close to 1,500. Get there early for the best stuff!

In addition to lots of local food, there will be a bartering area, a place for recipe swaps and discussion, and several great workshops - one of which will feature yours truly along with Juanita Nelson. Our workshop is called Winter Riches: Tips and Ideas for Eating Locally Through the Snowy Months and will meet from 10:15-10:45. See the Winter Fare website for details on the other workshops and schedule. Topics of other workshops include home canning, making cheese and yogurt, backyard sugaring, growing sprouts, and storing food through the winter.
