Mid-Maine Regional Adult Community Education

Has this long winter made you dream about strawberries and perhaps making some jams and jellies? Join Deborah Barnett from the UMaine Cooperative Extention in this hands-on food preservation workshop! You will learn 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, as you will be able to take home a jar of what we prepare that evening! There will be a $20 material fee (cash or check only) due to the instructor at the start of class. Limit 10 students.
