Are you eager to spend more time in the Roulant kitchen? Good news, harvest time and food transformation season are upon us!
We’ll be turning delicious Montreal-grown fruit and veggies into non-perishable food items. Think homemade salsa, dehydrated tomatoes, pear jam, kimchi and sauerkraut, just to name a few! Anyone is welcome in the kitchen, experienced or not.
- When: Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Fridays, late afternoon- early evening (exact schedule to be determined). Plus a few special events on Thursdays as well as a few workshops!
- How: Fill out this short form! This will help us identify volunteers’ interests and availability.
Need more information or eager to share your excitement or favourite recipe, contact Isabelle, our food transformation coordinator, via phone (514 284 9335) or email.
How does food transformation align with the Roulant’s work and mission?
- Canning and dehydrating thousands of pounds of excess produce from the farm allows us to reduce waste and increase the amount of nourishing food available to Montrealers.
- As an organization that strives to create an efficient food cycle, we are pleased to teach food transformation skills to the Roulant community in order to help people make the most of local and seasonally available food.
- The funds generated through the sale of canned, dried or frozen goods, available at the General Store, help to support our mission: building a food secure and socially inclusive community.
