Participants will learn the basics of food preservation as they safely preserve vegetables, fruits, pickles, jams and jellies in this hands on class. You will learn the difference between a hot water bath canner and pressure canner and why we use each one. Anyone interested in learning to preserve fruits and vegetables, or who just wants a refresher course may attend.

Cost is $60.00 which covers all supplies for the course. Participants take home a "So Easy to Preserve" Book and jars filled with produce preserved in the workshop.
