We’re excited to host Amy Parlette from the Suburban Homestead again! Turn those excess summer tomatoes into pantry gold!!

Beat the midsummer tomato overload at Lurvey Garden Center with a hands-on canning class that will help you turn your garden’s bounty into pantry gold!

Led by Certified Master Food Preserver Amy Parlette, this class will walk you through making and water bath canning garden-fresh salsa.

We’ll also talk through other simple ways to preserve tomatoes at home, including how to safely can them whole or as sauce. Attendees will take home:

  • A mason jar of freshly canned salsa
  • A recipe card so you can continue the fun at home
  • Canning skills so good, your tomatoes will beg to be preserved
