Canning and Preserving

My family have been canning and preserving since I was a kid, when we’d spend a Summer morning picking berries at McLean’s Berry Farm and the afternoon making strawberry and raspberry jam, or spend many long hours in the spring tapping the maple trees around our house in Keene, Ontario, gathering the sap, and cooking it off until we were drowning in maple syrup.

Here are some of my favourite canning and preserving recipes – I hope you enjoy them!
