📺 December 1: Making Jams & Jellies

Make a sweet spread at home with your favorite berries and other fruits, such as jams and jellies. Though sweet spreads are a popular home canned item, it is important to follow up-to- date canning processes and use appropriate equipment. This program will teach you step-by-step how to can jams and jellies at home and troubleshoot challenges that may arise, such as unset jellies.
This program is made possible by a grant from Danville Library Foundation and a partnership with University of Illinois Extension of Champaign, Ford, Iroquois, and Vermilion Counties.
The Library is committed to making programs accessible to all. If you would like an accommodation, please email the Community Relations Administrator at btruscelli@danvillepubliclibrary.org or call 217-477-5220 ext. 111.
