Canning Day, Howell Farm

Saturday September 25, 2021
10:00 AM

They sure make great cocktail glasses, but the Mason jars in your cabinet had a very different – and much more important – use at the turn of the century! Visit Howell Farm on this Saturday to learn canning: the ins, outs, and vacuum seals in between your summer produce and a delicious winter stew. Kim Daly, keeper of Howell Farm's historic kitchen, will teach you how to "put up" your food – with tomato, bean, and okra canning demonstrations outside the farmhouse throughout the day.
