Workshop Review: Canning for the Sweet Life

Thank you all very much for coming out to our Canning for the Sweet Life workshops on September 5 and 6. We had lots of fun learning how to make delicious Italian prune plumes and yummy apple butter.

At the end of the night, everyone got to take home a jar or two of what they made -- we hear the Italian prune plums are delicious on yoghurt!
