Learn the fundamentals of hot water bath canning at our hands-on workshop. We’ll discuss different types of goods- like jams, butters, pickles, and sauces- that can be safely prepared and canned at home using local seasonal foods such as grapes, apples, pears, cranberries and other late season fruits and veggies. Participants will make and can a pint of applesauce to take home.
