Preserving the Harvest: Jams and Jellies*
with Deborah Barnett, UMaine Cooperative Extension's Expanded Food & Nutrition Community Education Program

Has this long winter made you dream about strawberries and perhaps making some jams or jellies? Well, strawberry season is coming right up, and this hands-on food preservation workshop will teach you the basics steps for both canning and freezing. Participants will receive a “Preserving the Harvest” food preservation packet and will learn the latest and safest recipes, about equipment to insure safety, and how to check for properly sealed jars. Please bring a potholder with you to the workshop, so you will be able to take home a jar of what we prepare that evening! Limit 10 students.
