This was a great class. Patty did a great job covering the fundamentals and presented an array of options for canning from syrup to a chutney. There is also a great library to draw from and Patty is obviously very well versed with many of the authors and their strengths and weaknesses. The class was hands on and Patty included some drinks and spreads using canned products. It is remarkable how versatile this tool is. We also enjoyed the fact that we got to experience two different canning methods. Highly recommend Patty and this course!

Patty leads a wonderful class, especially for beginners! She provided all of the materials and walked us through the cooking and canning process. She is also very knowledgeable about all things canning, so she was ready to answer all of the questions we had about sugars, acids, air bubbles, etc. I highly recommend taking one of Patty's classes because she insists you get your hands dirty (so to speak) and actually make the products instead of merely observing.
