Old Fashioned Soap Making
Saturday, November 12th, 2022
JCC Carnahan Building 10:00am-12:00pm
$15/person
Do you have used cooking oil or extra lard from butchering a hog and not know what to do with it or have you ever wanted to learn about making soap? Come learn how to make homemade soap using lye and animal and/or vegetable fats. You will learn the history and science behind soap making, equipment, supplies needed, and how various fats and oils affect the finished product. Everyone will participate in making a batch of soap and will get to take home a bar (a portion of the class fee helps cover these supplies). The instructor will be Linda Dewey, 5th generation owner/operator of Silver Falls Farm, Perrysburg, NY, which has been continuously owned and operated by the Dewey family since 1817.
