Jamin' Workshop
Join us for a hands-on Jam Workshop with Marilyn Simons from Auntie M’s Garden Market! Marilyn will share her journey as a local entrepreneur and give a short presentation on her business, known for its delicious homemade preserves. Then, roll up your sleeves and learn the art of canning as she guides you step-by-step through making red currant jam in group workstations. Best of all, you’ll get to take home a jar of the jam you helped create a sweet reminder of a fun and tasty learning experience!
