Canning is the best way to preserve all of your fruits and vegetables that are so plentiful in the summer and fall. Whether you are canning your own produce from your garden or buying in season fruits and vegetables from a CSA or farmers’ market, you will save money by canning when the produce is plentiful and cheap rather than buying it off season.
