Want to preserve some of the wonderful Ontario harvest so that you can enjoy it for the rest of the year? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll dive right into the process of larger-batch pickling. This class is more about producing jars to take home, rather than a more in-depth lesson on the details of canning and preserving.

After a quick demonstration, participants will break into teams and work together – under the guidance of expert pickler Christine Manning of Manning Canning – to pickle bushels of Ontario spring asparagus using a variety of recipes. You’ll see firsthand how teamwork can increase your bounty.

You’ll learn the basics of preserving and canning while making delicious pickles, and leave with recipes and a minimum of 4-6 jars of Pickled Asparagus that you can store in your pantry or give as gifts throughout the year.
