July 11 Canning Results for Cherries, Strawberries and Raspberries

July 11 production canning results for cherries, strawberries and raspberries!
Three canners, Janet of Facility Kitchens and her daughter Madeleine and niece, Clare, in from Kansas City, were led by Diane Devereaux, The Canning Diva.
Input: one 10# tub of pre-pitted tart cherries, from Heidi’s of Lowell, and one flat of raspberries, one flat of sweet cherries, and one flat of strawberries, from the Ada Farm market.
Output Tally! 4 quarts & 2 pints of cherry pie filling, 10 pints and 2 half-pints of raspberry-lemon concentrate, 5 pints of cherry berry fruit spread, 2 pints and 9 half-pints of cherry – lemon concentrate, and 6 pints of “Signature Strawberry Salsa” for a total of 40 jars processed.  (We did some pre-prep and used a cherry pitter.)
The next personal production canning session is July 17 starting at 5:45pm until 10:15pm. We will work with berries and cherries again. Bring enough berries and other ingredients for your recipe and jars, lids and rings and can as much as you can in 4.5 hours. Reserve your place in the canning line at www.canningdiva.com or email janet@facilitykitchens.com. The session is $45.00 for the 4.5 hours.
