Do you get overwhelmed by all the fresh produce from your garden CSA box? Join Master Food Preserver Rowena Aldridge for an introduction to canning and learn the fundamentals of putting all those delicious seasonal flavors in your pantry! This talk will cover the basics, from equipment and safety to techniques and recipes, with a focus on in-season vegetable and fruit products.

Rowena will demonstrate the most up-to-date USDA food preservation techniques, so you can see for yourself just how simple it is to put up your own foods. When you leave this class, you will be ready to tackle canning in your own kitchen!
