Hands On "Canning" May 10, 2010

This workshop will teach you the basics of hot water bath canning and the simple process of pickle-making in a fun, hands-on experience that moves beyond the classic cucumber pickle to explore other vegetables and fruits. Try your hand at making and canning spicy garlic dill asparagus pickles or pickled five spice sweet cherries, and take home a jar of each! BYO-apron or purchase one from HOG for an additional $10.
