Objective

Fire cider offers a simple ritual for honoring the shifting seasons. You can gather your ingredients and make your cider whenever you wish, then let them steep for about 30 days. As the cold and flu season is in full force, you have a tonic at the ready to help keep you healthy.

We’re gathering to make Dr. Julia Skinner’s fire cider recipe from Essential Food Preserving. Join us on Friday for open fermentation hours (anytime from 11AM – 2PM) to make a jar for yourself to get you through the season.

BRING A JAR! PLUS any roots, shoots and fruits, and spices you’d like to add for your brew.

What's Included:

• Fresh produce from Battery Urban Farm thanks to One Love Community Fridge
• Knives and Cutting Boards
• Apple Cider Vinegar
• Salt

What to Bring:

• A clean, sanitized, glass jar with a well-fitting lid.
• Any roots, shoots and fruits, and spices you’d like to include in your mix
