ABOUT THIS EVENT

Food & Drink

Event Overview

Jam, pickles, tomatoes, salsa, and much more can be safely and easily preserved at home - if you know how. The process can seem intimidating, but I'll show you how to do it right.

We'll cover all the basics: what you need, what you don't need, what you can and cannot safely preserve with a water bath, materials sourcing, basic procedure, and specifics of jam and pickles. Each participant will get a jar of jam and one of pickles to take home. This is a hands-on class, so please wear closed-toed shoes.

Want great local food in the winter? Preserving your own is the way to go!
