Safety Information
This site is meant to chronicle my home food preservation endeavors and is not an all inclusive step-by-step educational resource to teach you home preservation techniques. I will attempt to answer as many questions as possible and assist you with finding resources you need to be a successful and safe home food preserver. If you have any questions that are not answered on this site, you can contact me directly and I will try to answer your question as quickly as possible.
The best place to start educating yourself regarding home food preservation is The National Center for Home Food Preservation. The web site contains background, instructions and recipes for safe home food preservation. Additionally, they coordinate extension services throughout the country so if you do not have a local office with a Master Food Preserver on staff, they are a more than adequate substitute.
I will update this area with additional information as needed.
