Hunger Task Force to offer canning lessons Aug. 30
KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – The Lake County Hunger Task Force will offer canning lessons on Thursday, Aug. 30.
The canning of fruits and vegetables will be taught from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Kelseyville Presbyterian Church, located at Third and Church streets.
Pears and tomatoes will be featured, as they are the most abundant crops in Lake County likely to be canned at home, and off a well rounded learning experience.
The class will be hands-on, with all participants experiencing each step of the process.
Please come dressed appropriately, removing all rings, and no open-toed shoes or sandals. No children, please.
The Hunger Task Force believes that home canning is one of the best ways to prepare healthy, nutritious food for your family.
Upon completion of the lesson each participating household will be given a water bath canner, a book, a jar lifter and a case of canning jars to take home. Participants must be preregistered, and space is limited to 12 people.
The cost is $20, half of which will be refunded upon attendance.
Please call 707-277-9227 as soon as possible to register.
