Water bath and pressure canning, dehydrating, fermenting, and freezing. Preserve your garden harvest and enjoy homegrown food year-round. Safety first!

A pressure canner ($80) opens up low-acid foods: green beans, meats, soups. USDA guidelines are non-negotiable for safety.

Solid advice. Been doing it the hard way for years - this is so much better.

Tried three different approaches before this one worked. Persistence pays off.

Shredded cabbage, salt, mason jar, 3 weeks. The easiest fermented food to make. Incredible probiotics and flavor.

I wish I had known this sooner. Would have saved me a lot of trouble.
Alice Hartwell   Salsa recipe for water bath canning Sep 27, 2026 9:03 am
Tested recipe with correct acidity for safe water bath processing. Makes 7 pints. Best salsa you will ever taste.

My uncle does this for a living and he agrees 100% with what you said.
Avtoservis_gmei   Dehydrating fruits and vegetables Sep 12, 2026 3:03 am
A $40 dehydrator from Walmart works great. Apple chips, banana chips, and beef jerky. Shelf stable for months.

LOL this is so true. Been there, done that.

Does this work for everyone or just certain setups? Asking because my situation is a bit different.
