Cornell Cooperative Extension holds Food Preservation training

NORWICH–With Spring finally upon us and winter dreams of ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and green beans will soon be a reality. Many of us are just excited to get our hands on fresh produce from the garden, while some are already planning ahead to preserve their harvest.

Cornell Cooperative Extension is excited to offer a series of food preservation classes throughout the year as well as a three day Master Food Preserver training.

If you are new to home food preservation you can learn the basics of food preservation safety and science, making jellies, pickling vegetables, and many other techniques for putting up the harvest. All of our classes are taught by certified Master Food Preservers.

This three day Master Food Preserver training will be held on June 20, 21 and 22 for those who would like to go beyond the basics of home food preservation, either for personal use or to help others learn how to safely preserve food. This course is the first step toward becoming a Cornell Cooperative Extension Master Food Preserver.

Using the safest, most updated information available, participants will learn the science of food preservation including food safety, gain hands-on experience with boiling water bath canning, pressure canning, jelled products, and quick pickling, plus observe demonstrations of freezing, drying, and fermentation.

If you are interested in food preservation classes or the Master Food preserver training you can contact Alexis Woodcock at 334-5841 (ext20), or by email at asw239@cornell.edu
