The rewards of home canning
Hello, I’m Amanda McNulty with Clemson Extension and Making It Grow. In the Depression years, a movement began to have school community canners built, and the need for them only grew during the rationing of products during World War Two. My husband Edward, born in ‘42, distinctly remembers his grandmother, who had twelve children and lots of extra family members coming and going, taking produce from their farm to the cannery. People worked together as they canned, doing different tasks, and putting up safe food products for their families during these times of shortages. In a rural state, making friends while feeding your family was rewarding. Today, Clemson offers a Master Food Preserver program that gives intensive training and supervised activities to people who want to share their science-based knowledge with others and learning the most up-to-date processes at the same time.
