Apple Harvest & Canning Experience

Join chef and food preservationist Merrilee Olson, founder of Preserve Farm Kitchens, at Gold Ridge Organic Farms for an immersive three-hour workshop learning how to transform apples picked straight from our orchards into delicious apple butter and exquisite preserves.

Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, Merrilee's years of expertise will guide you through time-honored canning techniques that turn simple, farm-fresh ingredients into culinary treasures. You'll discover the secrets behind achieving the perfect consistency, flavor balance, and preservation methods that ensure your creations last well beyond the harvest season.

The workshop will be conducted in our Apple Cottage kitchen and includes step-by-step instruction, tastings of your finished products, and plenty of tips for recreating the magic in your own kitchen.
