In home canning as well as in life, we sometimes get off our game; some call it “losing our mojo”.  You know that feeling:  Things aren’t quite right, we keep messing up, we can’t seem to get into that rhythm that keeps us productive and allows us to feel at ease.  That’s what it has been like for me this growing season.  In today’s episode I tell you how a simple bucket of cucumbers got me back in balance.  It’s an episode I think you’ll enjoy.

Seasonal canners will benefit by refreshing themselves on techniques, concepts, and processes that form the foundation to safe home canning.  Those new to home canning will find trusted places to learn and get started.
