Canning

I have never canned before but would love to learn. The organic CSA I am a member of has canning shares available:

Is anyone interested in going in on a full share with me and then coming over to my house and having a canning party? I have a gourmet kitchen and have plenty of room for about 4 to 5 people who would be interested in doing this. If anyone is interested, let me know!! Thanks!

I have a canning Pot and jars but I have never canned either.

I grew up helping my Mom can so I'm not so totally slow getting it done, but it does take time to do. We don't have anything this week (got a bushel of cabbage and are pickling only 2.5lbs, the rest is for making sauerkraut!), but hopefully next week will be something convenient!

ARe you interested in going in on a canning share with Grant Family Farms? If so, pm me and we can figure out a time to do the canning. Will Saturday or Sunday's work for you? If anyone else is interested, let me know!!!

It does take time, but man is it worth it. I just finished putting up my dill and sweet pickles, my pickled beets, dilled carrots and I'm on to doing salsa in about a week.. If you get stuck, or a bit lost you can always call the ARAPAHOE COUNTY EXTENSION OFFICE, they are most helpful,,(303) 730-1920. Enjoy...................................

I was so excited when I found 285bound.com! I'm an avid food blogger and canning aficionado. I live in Conifer and would love to meet anyone interested in sharing the love of cooking and eating great foods. Canning parties are a must!! I enjoy teaching canning techniques, sharing recipes and fun stories about life’s most precious moments. Check out my blog to see my most recent photos and recipes.
