Canning and Preserving Foods?
It’s time to test……your pressure canner, that is. Anyone using a pressure canner with a dial gauge should have it tested each year at the beginning of canning season.
We will test your pressure canner dial gauge, lid and gasket free of charge. Take your test now, so you can enjoy the great fresh fruits and vegetables available now, all year long.
