Workshops
“We decided to do something different for our company Christmas gathering and can heartily recommend the fermentation workshop. It was fascinating to know more about different fermentation techniques and recipes and the lunch was delicious.”
Workshops, Masterclasses & Day Courses
We offer bespoke private sessions on subjects linked to activities at the farm; from beekeeping to growing specialist vegetables. We also work with @cultjar and host food and drink workshops.
Our expert tutors will share skills, techniques and guidance on their respective subject, while also ensuring that each workshop has an element of hands-on activity for those that want to join in.
These workshops make a great gift or you could even combine it with a weekend away in the holiday cottages at the farm, a work away day or a friends get together.
Fermentation & Pickling Workshops
in partnership with @cultjar we offer half day and day courses where you can learn how to create your favourite Cultjar ferments and pickles from scratch, followed by a delicious lunch made from ingredients grown at the farm. You will then take your jars home with you complete with the knowledge, recipes and experience to make more.
We can be flexible with the agenda and the following is a typical outline;
11.00 Arrive / coffee / introductions
11.15 Fermentation and pickling overview
12.15 Tour the farm / harvest produce to be used later in the day
13.00 Lunch - a selection of preserved foods and farm fresh ingredients
14.00 Fermentation masterclass – three recipes
17.30 End
Guideline pricing is;
2-4 pax £165 per person
5+ pax £140 per person
For a full day course, we recommend an extra tutor and expand the agenda to include how to incorporate ferments in everyday and special occasion meals, as an example.
The pricing is;
1-4 pax £195 per person
5+ pax £170 per person
Numbers
There is a minimum of 2 people and a maximum of 10 per workshop with the intention being that the day will be interactive and informal for all.
