Food Preservation: Preserving Persimmons

Food Preservation is an educational workshop series focused on teaching practical techniques for preserving fresh produce at home. This session spotlights persimmons—how to select ripe fruit, prepare it properly, and use methods like drying, freezing, or making preserves to extend the season's bounty. Families will learn hands-on skills they can apply in their own kitchens, making it ideal for parents and older kids interested in gardening, cooking, and reducing food waste. Expect a relaxed, informative atmosphere at a working farm setting.
