Master Food Preserver Workshops - Summer 2009
Wondering what to do with all that garden produce that you are sure to have come August this year? Do you want to learn about home canning, freezing foods, or drying foods so that you can teach others? Are you new to UWEX and need a stronger background in food safety so that you can answer consumer questions? Then consider attending the Master Food Preserver and Food Safety Volunteer training!
This 3-day program is designed to introduce you to the basics of food safety and home food preservation. Participants completing the pretest, the 3-day hands-on training, and scoring a satisfactory grade on the daily take-home examinations and the final test will be certified as Master Food Preservers.
Master Food Preservers are asked to provide 20 hours of volunteer service annually to UW-Extension in their county, helping to answer general food safety and food preservation questions.
