Olive Pickling Workshop

A gloved hand places a green olive into a mortar & pestle. Around the mortar and pestle are also jars, a bowl and a plastic bag, all containing green olives.

Join us for a hands-on and informative session about pickling and preserving your own olives.

Facilitated by Teresea Oates, this workshop will guide you through the basics of olive pickling and preservation. You'll learn practical techniques and see demonstrations of different methods, including black and green olives.

Participants will have the opportunity to get involved in pickling their own olives during the session (limited spots available), while others can observe and learn the process.

The session will also include:

guidance on how to use preserved olives, including dressing and serving ideas
a tasting of olives preserved from last season, served with bread.

This is a great opportunity to build practical skills, ask questions and connect with others interested in food preservation, sharing culture and traditions, and sustainable living.

Some tickets include hands-on olive pickling while others are for observation only. Please select your ticket type carefully when booking. Those participating in hands-on pickling will need to bring their own olives and containers to pickle them in.
