Lewiston-Porter Central School District

Do you want to extend the shelf life for your dried goods? Do you want to buy in bulk and stock your shelves? This class will teach you how to do that. Dry canning involves putting dry foods in jars, heating them in an oven and then sealing the jars. The heat destroys micro organisms in the food, which extends its shelf life. Each student should bring one dried food item such as rice, dried beans, pasta or cereal; about four cups worth. You will leave class with it being dry canned.

Students aged 10 and up are welcome to register when a parent or guardian is also registered and attends the same class.

A supply fee of $5 per person is due and to instructor the day of class.
