The UC Master Food Preservers of El Dorado County are teaming up with the El Dorado Farm Bureau for this event. In this class we will discuss and demonstrate the basics of boiling water canning. We will discuss how to safely can products at home using science-based methods and recipes.

In this hands-on class, youll be instructed on safe methods to preserve jam (full sugar, low sugar, sugar substitute, and no sugar varieties will all be discussed). While the jam is in the canner, youll learn about dehydrating herbs and develop your own herbal tea blend.

Youth ages 5-18 are invited to come make three jars of a jam or jelly of their choice (apple, strawberry, peach or grape), then take one home and enter the other two in the 2024 El Dorado County Fair! Bring your own fruit and the Master Food Preservers will provide everything else.
