MORRISVILLE, N.Y. — Cornell Cooperative Extension of Madison County will host a Pressure Canning for Beginners Class, September 22, 2021, from 6-8pm. Whether you’re preserving your own harvest, or you’ve purchased locally grown fruits or vegetables, canning can be an effective way to serve foods that taste harvest-fresh at a later date. To ensure that the products you serve are safe, it is important to follow tested guidelines for safely preserving foods.
Our colleague Betty Clark, SNAP-Ed Team leader, and Cornell Certified Master Food Preserver from CCE-Chenango will be teaching the class in the AG Center at the CCE Madison office, 100 Eaton Street, Morrisville, NY 13408. No experience necessary. Come, learn the procedures for safely canning low-acid foods, such as vegetables, in a pressure canner. Includes a demonstration and hands on experience canning green beans.
Please register for this FREE class at https://reg.cce.cornell.edu/PressureCanningforBeginners_225 by September 21st at noon.
