Turn holiday leftovers into something delicious! Learn easy preserving tricks and take home your own jar of citrus sugar.
About this Event

Don't toss it — preserve it. Join Certified Master Food Preserver Amy Parlette for a class on giving your holiday leftovers a second life.

Post-Thanksgiving kitchens are full of citrus peels, cranberries, and half-used herb bunches headed for the trash. You’ll watch (and help!) as Amy demonstrates easy, low-effort ways to preserve them instead — dehydrated citrus slices, citrus salt and sugar, and more — so nothing seasonal goes to waste.

You'll leave with:

  • Recipes for dehydrated citrus slices and citrus salt/sugar
  • Your own jar of citrus sugar to take home for inspiration
  • Simple, no-equipment-needed techniques you can use with whatever's left in your fridge
  • Ideas for stretching holiday abundance a little further
