Waterbath Canning for Fall

Canning is not just for the summer! Waterbath canning is a tried and true method of preserving food year-round, that has enjoyed renewed interest with the resurgence of DIY methods, and eating “local and organic”. Students will learn the basics of hot and cold packed pickles of various fall vegetables and also will complete an apple butter! The class provides an intensive up-close opportunity to learn the boiling water-bath canning process, with kitchen safety and food safety issues. Participants will go home with a small jar of that day’s work, a booklet with corresponding recipes and an FSC goodie bag.
