PLEASE READ DETAILS THOROUGHLY:
While this is a free event, we ask that all attendees register as we have limited space available. Please be mindful and let us know if you need to cancel so we can offer your spot to someone else. You can email us at [email protected].
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Items are swapped one-for-one, so please keep that in mind when preparing your goods. Bring as many or as few items as you would like to take home! We also encourage you to bring a variety of ferments and preserves (i.e. it doesn't have to be all one of the same item and can be a mix and match of items that you have from your homemade pantry).
We suggest bringing a mix of 6-12 (or more) homemade items like:
• Jams & Jellies
• Pickles & Chutneys
• Hot Sauces
• Salsas & Relishes
• Ferments of all kinds (krauts, kimchees, preserved lemons, misos, etc)
• Herb & fruit infusions (tinctures, liqueurs, shrubs, etc)
• Live, heirloom cultures (sourdough, kombucha, kefir, yogurt, etc)
• Other homemade abundance!
Swapping takes place through discussion and agreement. Remember, no money is changing hands. All swaps are one-for-one and by barter only!

Preserved is a fermentation-focused kitchen shop and classroom in Oakland’s Rockridge neighborhood, right on the College Ave commercial strip. The front of the space functions as a retail store stocked with pantry staples, preserving tools and general cooking gear, so walking in for a class means passing shelves of jars, baking equipment, vinegars and grains. more...
