DESCRIPTION:Root beer is a distinctly American drink with a sweet\, herbal flavor that’s been made since the colonial era. \n\n\n\nTraditionally\, brewers made the drink by fermenting an herbal decoction made with sassafras bark\, sarsaparilla root\, and other herbs with sugar and yeast to make a naturally bubbly\, probiotic soft drink. \n\n\n\nSassafras\, sarsaparilla\, ginger root\, and birch all give the brew its distinctive flavor\, but without the additives. \n\n\n\n\nSassafras gives root beer its distinctive\, slightly mint-like flavor\, and is traditionally used to purify the blood in folk medicine.\n\n\n\nSarsaparilla is traditionally used as a renal tonic and for the complexion.\n\n\n\nGinger gives this root beer recipe a rich\, fiery note. Herbalists use ginger to support cardiovascular and metabolic health\, as well as for nausea and stomach upset.\n\n\n\nLicorice gives the recipe a subtle\, anise-like sweetness that pairs well with sassafras. Licorice also supports adrenal health\, and may be helpful in addressing hormonal imbalance in women.\n\n\n\nDandelion Root adds the subtlest bitter note to the brew. Dandelion root also supports liver health.\n\n\n\n\nWe will make a ginger bug (the life of the root beer!) and learn how to combine various herbs\, roots\, and barks to make this yummy and healthy elixir. \n\n\n\nWe get to sample some finished product\, plus everyone takes home a flip-top bottle of what we make in the class. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Related URL:https://garnetschool.com/event/lets-make-root-beer-the-old-fashioned-way/ LOCATION:Garnet School\, 456 Critchett Rd\, Candia\, NH\, 03034-2130\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://garnetschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/signal-2023-01-29-195501_002.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250518T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250518T160000 DTSTAMP:20260515T083506 CREATED:20220526T131147Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250517T164446Z UID:10000022-1747576800-1747584000@garnetschool.com SUMMARY:Late Spring Foraging DESCRIPTION:There’s food all around us.

DESCRIPTION:Pemmican is the ultimate survival food; it is delicious and healthful as well. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLil’ anecdote: \n\n\n\nAnthropologist and explorer Vihljamur Stefansson observed that the Inuit would spend weeks away from camp with nothing more than pemmican to eat and snow to drink. Despite this extremely limited diet\, they would return in sterling condition. \n\n\n\nWhile living with the native peoples\, Stefansson himself adopted a pemmican habit enjoying the same health-preserving results. European settlers quickly embraced the practice as well\, trading with the Native Americans to obtain this valuable\, lightweight\, and nutrient-dense food while learning to make it themselves. \n\n\n\nNeat! \n\n\n\nProperly made pemmican made with just meat and fat if stored properly lasts many years\, even decades. We’ll make a beef-based pemmican with nuts\, berries\, honey\, and herbs. \n\n\n\nEveryone takes home a some pemmican\, plus the knowledge and recipes to make plenty more for family and friends! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Related URL:https://garnetschool.com/event/lets-make-pemmican-2/ LOCATION:Garnet School\, 456 Critchett Rd\, Candia\, NH\, 03034-2130\, United States END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230305T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230305T150000 DTSTAMP:20260515T083506 CREATED:20230301T150440Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230301T153537Z UID:10000080-1678021200-1678028400@garnetschool.com SUMMARY:Make Your Own Skincare DESCRIPTION:Lip balm\, face cream\, deodorant… \n\n\n\nWhy not make your own organic\, premium skincare products? \n\n\n\nIt’s fun\, rewarding\, and much higher quality than what you buy from the store. \n\n\n\nLearn\, make stuff\, take some home! \n\n\n\nGet your tickets below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Related URL:https://garnetschool.com/event/make-your-own-skincare/ LOCATION:Garnet School\, 456 Critchett Rd\, Candia\, NH\, 03034-2130\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://garnetschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/signal-2023-02-28-212417.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230219T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230219T150000 DTSTAMP:20260515T083506 CREATED:20230208T160800Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230218T234301Z UID:10000077-1676811600-1676818800@garnetschool.com SUMMARY:Let's Tap Maple Trees and Make Syrup!

DESCRIPTION:Root beer is a distinctly American drink with a sweet\, herbal flavor that’s been made since the colonial era. \n\n\n\nTraditionally\, brewers made the drink by fermenting an herbal decoction made with sassafras bark\, sarsaparilla root\, and other herbs with sugar and yeast to make a naturally bubbly\, probiotic soft drink. \n\n\n\nSassafras\, sarsaparilla\, ginger root\, and birch all give the brew its distinctive flavor\, but without the additives. \n\n\n\n\nSassafras gives root beer its distinctive\, slightly mint-like flavor\, and is traditionally used to purify the blood in folk medicine.\n\n\n\nSarsaparilla is traditionally used as a renal tonic and for the complexion.\n\n\n\nGinger gives this root beer recipe a rich\, fiery note. Herbalists use ginger to support cardiovascular and metabolic health\, as well as for nausea and stomach upset.\n\n\n\nLicorice gives the recipe a subtle\, anise-like sweetness that pairs well with sassafras. Licorice also supports adrenal health\, and may be helpful in addressing hormonal imbalance in women.\n\n\n\nDandelion Root adds the subtlest bitter note to the brew. Dandelion root also supports liver health.\n\n\n\n\nWe will make a ginger bug (the life of the root beer!) and learn how to combine various herbs\, roots\, and barks to make this yummy and healthy elixir. \n\n\n\nWe get to sample some finished product\, plus everyone takes home a flip-top bottle of what we make in the class. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Related URL:https://garnetschool.com/event/lets-make-root-beer-the-old-way/ LOCATION:Garnet School\, 456 Critchett Rd\, Candia\, NH\, 03034-2130\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://garnetschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/signal-2023-01-29-195501_002.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230129T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230129T160000 DTSTAMP:20260515T083506 CREATED:20230102T015937Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230102T021252Z UID:10000074-1675000800-1675008000@garnetschool.com SUMMARY:Sewing Alterations 101 DESCRIPTION:Want to improve the fit of your clothing?\nLearn to hem\, alter and repair everything in your wardrobe\, from hats to boots.\nThis is a great skill to have\, and will save you $$$!\n\n\n \n\nGet your tickets below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Related URL:https://garnetschool.com/event/sewing-alterations-101-2/ LOCATION:Garnet School\, 456 Critchett Rd\, Candia\, NH\, 03034-2130\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://garnetschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/Tailoring-101.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230115T140000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230115T160000 DTSTAMP:20260515T083506 CREATED:20221228T180827Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230112T215435Z UID:10000073-1673791200-1673798400@garnetschool.com SUMMARY:Let's Make Pie!

Despite this extremely limited diet\, they would return in sterling condition. \n\n\n\nWhile living with the native peoples\, Stefansson himself adopted a pemmican habit enjoying the same health-preserving results. European settlers quickly embraced the practice as well\, trading with the Native Americans to obtain this valuable\, lightweight\, and nutrient-dense food while learning to make it themselves. \n\n\n\nNeat! \n\n\n\nProperly made pemmican made with just meat and fat if stored properly lasts many years\, even decades.
