It makes me want too, but...I have a question. How can I can without buying a ton of expensive equipment? I can't afford to buy it, but want to buy the fresh veggies at the farmers markets this summer. Thanks!! Kellyn fritzfacts at gmail dot com I love reading about your canning.

The key is to use clean technique, bring things to a brisk boil before putting into jars, and then process per expert guidelines. Here is a good source of info http://www.uga.edu/nchfp/publications/publications_usda.html To be on the safe side, I always process things 5-10 minutes longer than suggested. And the canner you linked to looks just like one of the two that I use. Good luck! Mary As long as you are dealing with acidic foods and handling it properly, canning is safe.

Here's what I need to know: Is canning as easy as this post makes it sound? I've never done it before. I've been tempted, but scared away by the seeming complexity of it all (botulism from tomatoes!?) And if I buy a boiling-water canner can I buy one as cheap as this one (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000BZSZQU/ref=pd_luc_mri?%5Fencoding=UTF8&m=ADFRQ5K4I2LNR&v=glance) and be satisfied?
