SUMMARY:Food Preservation and Pressure Canning
LOCATION:Sammie Cafe
DESCRIPTION:Okay\, so the world isn’t ending\, and I’m not a canner be
 cause I think it is. I can because it’s just that economical (and yes\, 
 you probably thought I was going to say “because I can\,” didn’t you
 ?).\nCanning is easily one of my favorite conversation topics. As a pressu
 re canner\, I’ve always had a steady supply of food ready for my conveni
 ence—and it’s amazing. I have everything from juices to meats on my sh
 elves\, all because I spotted something on sale and knew I could use it\, 
 if not today\, then definitely someday.\nIt’s all because I found a grea
 t deal and knew it would make a great addition to my cantry.\nNot only can
  I control what goes into my food—how much salt\, how much sugar—but I
  also know there are no preservatives. There’s something incredibly sati
 sfying about opening a jar months later and knowing exactly what’s insid
 e.\n \n                                           
                             \n                   
                                            \nDiscuss
 ion topics include: why canning is a valuable skill\, how it benefits your
  household\, and what you need to get started.\nIn this session\, we will 
 explore several food preservation techniques. You’ll learn about vacuum 
 sealing using both jars and polymer bags\, and how dehydrating can be used
  to preserve everything from fruits to homemade bouillons and powders. We
 ’ll also look at the different types of jars available and discuss which
  ones are best suited for various preservation methods.\nWe will cover the
  key differences between water bath canning and pressure canning\, includi
 ng when and why each method is used. Water bath canning will be discussed 
 in relation to preserving high-acid foods such as pickles\, jams\, and jel
 lies.\nParticipants will also be introduced to fermenting techniques and h
 ow fermentation can be used to safely preserve and enhance foods.\nA highl
 ight of the session will be a full demonstration of the pressure canning p
 rocess. We’ll talk about pressure canning meats\, fish\, vegetables\, an
 d even complete meals\, including which foods work best for this method an
 d which ones don’t.\nFinally\, the class will touch on USDA food safety 
 guidelines\, what USDA approval means for home canners\, and how recommend
 ations have evolved over time.\n \n                         
                                     \n \nOur goal is si
 mple: to cut down on our grocery bill and reduce food waste. I use somethi
 ng from my pantry every single day\, and it feels great knowing that I’m
  lowering the amount of waste my family produces.\nEvery jar I use is reus
 able\, which means fewer cans\, less plastic\, and no styrofoam trays from
  meat packaging ending up in the garbage. It’s a small change that can m
 ake a big difference over time.\nOf course\, we’ll cover all of these im
 portant details during our initial discussion as we explore how food prese
 rvation can benefit both your household and the environment.\nWe have plen
 ty of nibblies and snacks\, along with a selection of curated cocktails an
 d local beers to enjoy. Snack boards can be purchased with your tickets\, 
 and drinks cocktails will be available all night.\nAt Sammie’s Cafe\, we
 ’re creating a welcoming space for multimedia artists to connect\, colla
 borate\, and share their expertise\, building a lively learning community.

 om with any ideas\, comments\, or questions. Follow us on Instagram @TheGr
 owingStudios for more classes and the latest announcements.\nThank you for
  your interest\,  we are trilled to share this event with you.\nLook forw
 ard to enjoying an evening with like minded enthusiasts.  Talking and cre
 ating is an evening well spent. \n
