Food Preservation: Pressure Canning Demonstration

  • Wednesday, May 27, 2026, 5:30 PM - 7:00 PM

Pressure canning is an efficient and safe way to preserve food such as vegetables and meat, but it can be intimidating to beginners and needs to be done correctly. Come to this demonstration to learn how to evaluate a pressure canner for safety, how to find and follow recipes, and simple ways to start pressure canning this season. Please note that this is a demonstration only, and that it will just be offered in person. If you have a pressure canner you may bring it for the gasket and gauge to be checked.


Fee

This program is valued at $25, however, please pay what you are able. Paying more than $25 will help others attend the class.
