I have the space, knowledge and a tiller to grow a large garden, I do not have the equipment to can. After the initial cost of equipment is it cost effective, say, a canned jar compared to buying a can of veggies at the store? Thanks!
Depends entirely on what you think your time is worth! I usually would not post on this on the SS board because it is against the gospel preached here. Frankly I freeze any excess produce but If your freezer fails you are toast. Commercial canning is better than what i can do at home.chrissum said:I have the space, knowledge and a tiller to grow a large garden, I do not have the equipment to can.
