Waterbath Canning 101

Canning is a tried and true method of preserving food that has enjoyed renewed interest with the resurgence of DIY methods, and eating “local and organic”. Blogger, Food Swap Host and local food/farming advocate, Christina Davis will walk you through the basics of pickling and boiling-water bath canning. The class provides an intensive up-close opportunity to learn to make pickled vegetables & the basic safety and techniques to return home to ‘put up’ the summer’s bounty. The participants will go home with a small jar of that day’s work and a booklet with corresponding recipes.
