Preserving Apples the Freund Way
Date/Time
Location
Berkshire Botanical Garden (5 West Stockbridge Road, Stockbridge, MA 01262, Stockbridge MA)
Theresa Freund of Freund’s Farm Market and Bakery will lead a workshop to turn a variety of locally grown apples into apple butter. Beginning with the applesauce process, the group will make a thick, spiced spread to use on toast, oatmeal, meats and other foods. Everyone will take home 8 to 10 half-pint jars of butter.
Theresa Freund joined Freund’s Farm (@freundsfarmmarket) in 1979 as a farmhand and married Matthew Freund in 1982. She chose marketing over milking as she grew her family to six children. In 1995, Theresa moved her business operations from the front yard farm stand to the backyard where she now fills Freund’s Farm Market, a two-story post and beam red barn, with seasonal and local products.
