Canning and Freezing the Summer’s Bounty—A How-To Class

Submitted by on August 31, 2010 – 8:57 pmNo Comment


The Park School is hosting a number of events in the coming months with topics in the area of gardening and food. One such event will feature Mt. Washington’s own Larry Kloze and his wife, Vicki.

Larry, a master gardener who has been featured in past articles, and Vicki will teach class attendees how to preserve excess produce from your garden (or CSA) by using proper canning and freezing practices.
The class also includes theory, techniques, and food safety guidelines. Larry and Vicki have been feeding their family for many years from their backyard plot and they rarely go to the grocery store to purchase vegetables. Learn how you too can savor the summer’s harvest throughout the year.
The class will be held on Monday, October 4th from 7:00 p.m.-8:30 p.m. for a cost of $20. All proceeds benefit Park’s Lower School Organic Garden. Contact lrosenberg@parkschool.net for details (enrollment is limited to 25).
