Fire cider is a beloved herbal remedy — a spicy, tangy, vinegar-based tonic with deep roots in folk medicine. This workshop explores a summer variation: all the classic ingredients, plus a handful of wild local plants harvested right here at the farm.
We'll start the morning outside on a guided plant walk around Elkstone Farm, identifying and harvesting common plants and local medicinal weeds and learning why herbalists treasure them. Then we'll head inside to make our fire cider together, talking through the medicine-making process from start to finish.
By the end of the morning, you'll leave with a full mason jar of summer fire cider to take home and let steep — and the knowledge to make it again on your own.
