Food Preservation: Jams and Jellies

  • Tuesday, April 1, 2025, 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM

Canning jams and jellies is an easy, fast, and fun way to preserve fruit. In this workshop, we'll go over some of the basics of canning including equipment and food safety, and then learn how to make jams and jellies. Participants will have the opportunity to practice these skills with hands-on demonstrations and will be able to take home some of the items that they make! Due to the hands-on nature of this topic, it will only be offered in person and attendance will be limited to 16.

Instructor Aly Trombitas is the Agriculture & Horticulture Educator at CCE Tompkins. She has completed the statewide Master Food Preserver training and started formally (and enthusiastically) teaching food preservation in 2023. She has many years of experience teaching all ages about food, environment, and agriculture.
