Canning is an important, safe method of food preservation if practiced properly. The canning process involves placing foods in jars and heating them to a temperature that destroys organisms that could be a health hazard or cause the food to spoil. Participants will be engaged in hands-on activities using current USDA recommended techniques for preserving foods for home use. Persons with or without experience are encouraged to attend the workshop.

Should you require special accommodations due to a disability, please notify our office ten days prior to the event.
