Food prices are up. Petrol isn’t getting any cheaper. And for many families, there’s a bit of uncertainty right now. But one of the most practical things you can do is learn how to make the most of what you already have.
Right now, fruit is abundant (if not in your backyard, then ask a neighbour). Gardens are producing. Shops are full of seasonal deals. This is your moment to turn that into something that lasts.
This isn’t about doing everything. It’s about learning one simple skill… and building from there.
From a few jars on the bench, to a pantry you can rely on.
WHAT YOU’ll LEARN at Jar By Jar

Many of us who grew up with ‘preserving’ mum’s, aunts or grandmothers are enjoying their legacy today. So grateful for what you share, your legacy. You are an angel. (I look forward to learning how to preserve cooked potatoes!)
