The much anticipated tomato season is upon us and it is time to take advantage of the season.

Aspects of equipment and supplies, safe canning methods and storage of canned goods will be discussed in this hands-on class. Participants will leave with knowledge of properly canned tomatoes, no matter the recipe, and a pint jar of totally tasty tomatoes to take home.
