During this workshop, you will see a demonstration of harvesting Turmeric at Crabtree Farms, including instructions for overwintering the rhizome to grow throughout the year.
We will also review their important health benefits and experience the herb in various forms; fresh, dried, and powdered.
Participants will also be able to try a sample of Turmeric fire cider (alcohol free).
Turmeric Plants ($15) will be available for purchase at the end of the session, or you can reserve your own plant for $5 off the retail price! Just choose an “Adult PLUS Turmeric” ticket for a total of $30.
