So many good things are happening around Fidalgo — walks, talks, educational opportunities and rewarding experiences!
Below are some highlights of events coming up that we believe may be of interest to Transition folks.
TF&F Monthly ZOOM Gathering:
Wednesday, September 30, 2020, 7:00 pm
Join Transition Fidalgo & Friends for our Monthly Zoom Gathering. Hear and share community announcements and events; connect with fellow friends.
Food Preservation
Preserving food can increase access to local food, promote a more seasonal diet, reduce food waste, decrease household food costs, reduce carbon footprint, create a more sustainable household food system, and increase health and nutrition. We will identify the most common methods of food preservation and explore which methods might work for our own needs, including canning, freezing, fermentation, dehydration, and root cellar/microclimate storage.
Presented by Jennie Bryan-Goforth
Jennie Bryan-Goforth works with WSU Extension in the Family and Consumer Sciences department, offering a range of classes and workshops relating to health and nutrition, food access, gardening, food preservation, and more. She is also a long time resident of Finney Farm where she works extensively with the seed distribution program, distributing over 8000 packages of organic seed each year at no charge to schools and food banks. She preserves hundreds of pounds of food each year and food preservation is an important part of her household food system.
Our date change is to allow you to watch the Presidential Debate live on Tuesday evening, and still enjoy this presentation on Wednesday.
Our Monthly Gatherings include a sharing time and programs to help build local resilience and reduce carbon dependency. Everyone is welcome!
Time: Sep 30, 2020 07:00 PM Pacific Time (US and Canada)
