Bountiful Harvest

Mon, 10/08/2007 - 3:51pm — jennyleis

Ah, the fall, when we get to enjoy harvests of all types. Here at TLC Farm, we like to process, enjoy and save food as much as possible. Here are a few snapshots from recent weeks:

Apple cider making, from hundreds of pounds of apples that a few Farmies picked at a local organic orchard. Yummy!

Tomatoes! We picked and then canned about 220 pounds of heirloom, organic tomatoes at our friend's farm! (We ate all of our own ripe tomatoes, and are making fried green tomatoes from the unripe ones.)

Exploring Power, Leadership, and Consensus (Sun, Sep 30, 1pm-4pm)

When:

Sep 30 2007 - 1:00pm - 4:00pm

A powerful new workshop from Teryani Riggs of the Living Awareness Institute.

Using games and techniques from the Theater Of the Oppressed, we'll explore our relationship to power, experiment with transforming power-over relationships, play with different forms of leadership and their relationship to power, and learn new, fun ways to create consensus and power-with relationships. The intention is to learn and have fun while creating practical techniques and tools for transforming our world to a truly shared-power culture.

Learn how to make Non-dairy Kefir! November 3rd - 1:30-3:30pm

When:

Nov 3 2007 - 2:30pm - 4:30pm

Learn how to make Non-dairy Kefir

Saturday November 3rd, 2007
1:30 to 3:30 pm at Tryon Life Community Farm

Learn to make your own fermented sodas with non-dairy kefir culture,
water, dried fruit, and sugar! Taste kefir made with different kinds
of ingredients!

Gretchen Westlight will present instructions on how to make this
enzyme-rich healthful tonic, and offer tastings to demonstrate a
variety of delicious dairy-free flavors.

Kefir culture is a SCOBY: Symbiotic Colony Of Bacteria and Yeast (the
tiny clusters are often called "grains," but there is no cereal grain
involved). Every batch of kefir that you ferment will increase the
culture, so you'll be able to make your own for as long as you like,
and soon be giving your extra culture away, too! Each participant will
receive their own culture and set of instructions.

Sliding scale $15-25, no one turned away for lack of funds. Please
call TLC Farm at (503) 245-3847 or email workshop@tryonfarm.org if you have questions.
