In this Village Vancouver workshop with Caitlin Dorward, we will cover all the basics of boiling water bath canning and make some festive holiday preserves to enjoy with friends and family or to give as gifts. All materials are provided; participants take home a jar of what is made and a handout covering the info presented in the workshop.
