Every Spring, Summer, and Fall my husband and I prepare a plentiful garden. We take pride in feeding our family home-grown and chemical free produce. In order for items to stay good all year, we preserve our hard work through canning. I can all summer long and love to explore new recipes and gift ideas. I have been a certified teacher for over 10 years.
