French dairy jars - Fillmore Container giveaway
Things have been a mite crazy around these parts. I work part time with one of the local Austin farmers’ market groups and we hosted Sandor Katz, fermentation revivalist, last weekend at the Austin Fermentation Festival. It was such a treat to hang with one of my long-time food preservation mentors. Beyond Sandor’s keynote at the festival, we featured 12 local artisans and chefs who taught free workshops on fermenting various projects. I taught a workshop on fruit scrap vinegar fermentation, which segways nicely into what I did with this case of 16-oz French Dairy jars from Fillmore Container.
Raw, live vinegars make excellent gifts, especially holiday or housewarming, and they are simple and uncomplicated to make. Please visit this post, which serves as a home base for all the fruit scrap vinegar recipe posts and photos I’ve put up!

I'd put my fridge pickles in them and store all kinds of dried foods. Would love to make vinegar's too.
I'd use them for flavored water or to try out making vinegar.
So many options! Syrups, pickles, kvass, or just about any beverage!
I'm looking forward to putting vanilla extract in the jar!
I would use these for cordials and/or vinegars... Kefirs are on my 'need to try' list, too :)
Vanilla, infused vinegars and oils. Oh, so many things to do with these bottles. Would also be cool with homemade bath salts and a neat label or tag.
I can think of all kinds of things I'd like to put in these jars.
I have so many things I could put in these jars! I would likely use them for kombucha or herbal tea on the go.
these look amazing!
homemade hot fudge sauce for gifting!
I think they be great for different flavored vodkas to give as gifts.
Gorgeous! I've been wanting to start making kefir. These look like they'd work well!
I'd love to fill them with home-infused liqueurs! And maybe baking mixes and vegan sauces, for gifts. They're so pretty.
I want to ose these for our homemade fermented apple cider vinegar and for my elderberry and rose hips syrup!
I would be putting syrups in them. They are beautiful.
Beautiful! I just found my next diy project.
How gorgeous! Would love to try the vinegars, but would also use them to make personalized snow globes or bath salts as gifts. Oooh, would also be perfect ton showcase coins from all the countries hubby & I have visited.
I make blueberry vinegar-these would be perfect for storing that, with the plastisol liner in the cap.
Thanks for the chance!
I'm thinking kombucha, though I have wanted to make vanilla!
I make a lot of fruit scrap vinegar, so would love to have these jars to fill with vinegar.
these are a beautiful shape, I love the square body of the jar, and glass is a favourite. Thanks for the opportunity!
If I win, I'd be bottling vanilla extract with these lovely jars!
Love the idea!!! I want to do that!
I'd like to try making a grapefruit-centric citrusy vinegar. I've been buying one every once in a while from a local olive oil/vinegar shop and I love using it in quick vinaigrettes, but I'd like to be able to make it myself instead of having to buy it.
Cute jars! I could think of a million uses for those.
