If you’ve ever wanted to know how to safely “put up” the surplus of your home garden or local farmers’ markets – without losing the nutrition, flavor and goodness of in-season bounty – this is your opportunity to learn from the expert. Mandel Smith, Master Food Preserver with the Montgomery County Cooperative Extension, will cover pressure canning and hot-water-bath canning, freezing, and jam and jelly making.
