How to Eat Local Year-Round: How to Make Your Own Elderberry Syrup

November 9 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm

$65.00 – $130.00

Looking for a natural way to support your immune system during cold and flu season? Elderberries have long been prized in folk medicine for their antiviral and immune-boosting properties. In this hands-on class, you’ll learn how to make elderberry syrup from scratch using dried or frozen elderberries, warming spices like cinnamon and cloves, and the option to sweeten with raw local honey.

We’ll cover the healing history of elderberries, explore sourcing tips for local and organic ingredients, and walk step-by-step through the syrup-making process. You’ll leave with a take-home bottle, recipe card, and the confidence to make this time-tested herbal remedy part of your winter wellness ritual.

What You’ll Get:

  • ✅ A full demo + guided elderberry syrup prep session
  • ✅ A take-home bottle of elderberry syrup made in class
  • ✅ A printed instruction booklet + digital recipe card
  • ✅ Herbal wellness tips and sourcing recommendations
  • ✅ Optional label templates for your bottles

Spaces are limited to only 15 participants to ensure an intimate and educational experience.
