Food Preservation

Pier Jones

As supermarkets have replaced the root cellars and gardens of our ancestors, so have chemicals and preservatives replaced the vitamins and minerals once found in our foods. Whether you are interested in canning, freezing, and dehydrating some of your own foods in order to get more good out of your garden-fare, are concerned about the health issues of eating processed foods, are looking for gift-giving ideas that come from your kitchen, or just love to spend time in the kitchen and serve truly "home-made" meals, this is the place for you!
