Small Batch Canning

Once the domain of grandmothers, canning as a means of preserving the harvest has been making a comeback. If you enjoy eating in season, this is the way to enjoy the bounty of the harvest all year long. We’re talking a few jars at a time, no big deal, no fancy equipment. This class is for CSA subscribers who love supporting their local farmers but can’t get through their share each week; it’s for gardeners with postage-stamp sized plots, for farmers’ market regulars and for people who want to learn how to can but are intimidated by the process and scale. If you can boil water, you can stock your pantry with fresh goodies for every season. You will have an amazing pantry to draw from when it’s cold again — and Wheatsfield Co-op has everything you need from jars to pickling seasoning to pectin! Gluten Free and Vegan Friendly Class.
