Event Description

Now's the perfect time to do some canning! This hands on, three hour workshop is suitable for beginners or those needing to refresh their canning skills. Instructor Caitlin Dorward will cover all the basics of boiling water bath canning with an emphasis on Fall flavours. All materials are provided; and participants will take home a jar of your own creation and a handout covering all material presented in the workshop. We'll have the community seed library there - pick up some free seeds for your garden, swap or donate seeds. Light refreshments will be provided.

RSVP with Stephanie - stephanie@richmondfoodbank.org

This workshop is part of a series made possible by the +Fresh Gardens & Growing Fund from Food Banks Canada.
