Residents in Chattooga County will have the opportunity to learn hands-on food preservation skills this summer through a series of workshops hosted by the UGA Extension Office.

The classes, led by Chattooga County Extension Agent Rebecca Thomas, will cover a variety of popular home preservation techniques and recipes, including jams, jellies, canning, and pickling.

Workshops begin June 2 with a session on Jams & Jellies from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. Additional classes include:

Each class costs $25, and space is limited to 15 participants per session. Officials say payment is required to secure registration.

All workshops will be held at the Chattooga County Extension Office, located at 40 Middle School Road in Summerville.
