Get ready for your summer bounty! Join the Spiral Living Center on Saturday June 17, 2023 from 2-4pm at the Kerby Belt Building para Food Preservation Workshop on Pressure Canning & Fermentation, led by OSU Master Gardner & Food Preserver Tracey Riggi. Preserving food harvested from gardens, fruit trees, and farms, keeps food to eat in times when less is available and provides a sense of accomplishment! Safe, scientifically researched methods for canning and fermentation are ways of preserving edible food at home for quick use later. Pressure Canning is a wonderful process for specifically preserving meats, soups, and other low acidic foods!
In this 2 hour class, you’ll learn 2 additional types of food preservation methods and which ones work best for certain foods, time, supplies, skills, and equipment needed. With 12 years of experience, Tracey will share tips and tricks on how to use up your harvest and maximize the nutritional content of your stored foods! This workshop is open to all skill levels and is a wonderful starting point for beginners or those who would like a refresher on preservation methods. Come prepared with a notebook and pen!
