Preserving the Harvest: An Intro to Pickling & Fermentation

As the Pacific Northwest harvest lingers into early fall, it’s the perfect moment to capture summer’s bounty for the months ahead. Join chef and fermentation expert Lauren Feldman for a hands-on afternoon of pickling and fermenting seasonal vegetables, from classic sauerkraut to a versatile vinegar brine you can adapt all year long. Between chopping, brining, and tasting, you'll enjoy a cozy fall lunch inspired by what's in season as well as utilizing items from our fermentation and pickling projects. You’ll head home with jars of sauerkraut and pickles, fermenting tools, and the know-how to keep your pantry stocked with vibrant, flavorful vegetables long after the garden fades. At each Bella Luna class you will get the chance to enjoy Bellsong Creamery cheeses, sip a glass of something special, and gather around a beautifully prepared meal.
