Extension Office ’ s Gifts from the Kitchen Class is ‘ Jam ’ Packed with Fun
By: Clare Lillard, Extension Agent, Family & Consumer Services, Orange County Extension Office
It ’ s been said that the best gifts are those from the heart, and nothing expresses that more than an edible gift straight from the kitchen. Participants in a recent Gifts from the Kitchen class, conducted by the Orange
Extension Office, created such gifts - including jam and jarred cookie mix - to share with their family and friends. They also learned the basics of safe home food preservation using the water bath canning method and worked to creatively package their gifts for holiday gift giving!
