More and more people are planting gardens these days whether their goal is to save money at the grocery store or to eat healthier, fresher food. But what happens if you plant too much? And how do you stretch those summer goods throughout the year? Learn about Freezing and Canning Vegetables and Fruits in an upcoming class at Randolph Community College’s Archdale Center.

This two-session class will provide hands-on training in these timeless skills and may inspire you to teach the next generation. Emphasis will be on safety and saving on your grocery bill. A pickled product will be included. Pressure canning will not be demonstrated.

Students may enroll in an evening class, set for 6-9 p.m., Monday, July 13 and July 20, or a morning class, set for 8:30-11:30 a.m., Friday, July 17 and July 24. The registration is $23, plus students will divide the approximately $30 in costs of canning/freezing supplies.

Students may call (336) 862-7980 or (336) 633-0286 to register, or register online at www.randolph.edu/continuinged/schedule.php. The classes will be held at the Archdale Center, located at 110 Park Drive in Creekside Park, just off of Highway 311 south of Archdale.
