Fire Cider

Using ingredients grown here at Shelburne Farms, we will prepare Fire Cider, a vinegar infusion of herbs and vegetables, while learning about the many herbs that can help keep us healthy through the winter months. All participants will bring home their preparation.
Spoonful Herbals is the collaborative effort of community herbalists and educators Katherine Elmer and Kara Buchanan. Spoonful offers an annual Herbal CSA (Community Supported Apothecary), which includes an herbal self-care package: each providing 10 hand-crafted remedies, with detailed educational guidance about the plant ingredients and their uses all for $150, with convenient share pickup in Burlington. Spoonful also runs a 6-month Community Herbalism Apprenticeship program where students learn how to identify, harvest, and create remedies from native and locally-grown medicinal herbs. Spoonful’s Herb Mob program engages volunteers to bring locally harvested (gleaned) medicinal plants into our apothecary from local organic farms and green spaces such as Shelburne Farms. www.spoonfulherbals.org.
