Making jam from garden and hedgerow fruit

Ravenscraig Walled Garden

At our community garden we grow a variety of fruit from strawberries and raspberries to the abundant apple crop from the orchard. Making jam is a great way to preserve the summer harvest to last well into the winter. At the workshop we will share our knowledge and experience to help you make jam from garden and hedgerow fruit.We’ll forage around the garden to pick fruit and wild berries and then turn it into jam at our Cabin. We’ll look at the principles behind jam making, how you can make the most of different kinds of fruit and we’ll send you home with recipes, ideas and a jar of tasty jam.No experience necessary, the workshop is suitable for beginners. Please wear suitable outdoor clothing and be prepared to be outside in all weathers! The workshop will take place outdoors at Ravenscraig Walled Garden.Directions to Ravenscraig Walled Garden - https://what3words.com/tube.gloves.palaceBooking InformationFull price: £20Greener Kirkcaldy members/volunteers: £18Concessions*: £16 *Students (full time), Senior Citizens (65+), eligible benefits (Income Support, Working Tax Credit, Income based Jobseeker’s Allowance, Income based Employment and Support Allowance, Housing Benefit and Universal Credit).

The gates to the garden are located at the Dysart end of Ravenscraig park; on the corner of Dysart Road and West Quality Street. You will see gates entering into Ravenscraig Park. Just past these gates are two green metal gates beside a red brick wall – that is the entrance to Ravenscraig Walled Garden. Go through the green gates and follow the path around to your right past the car park. Keep to the right and you will see a big space with lots of allotments. If you look to the left, you will see a green ‘cabin’ with a polytunnel and raised beds. That is where we meet. If no-one there, people might be in our old plot - Go past the two flower beds on the left and you will see a green hedge in the left. Our community garden is behind the hedge on the left. It has a big brown shed on it.
