Hey guys, this is Carolyn from homesteading family. And before we jump into today's podcast,

I wanted to invite you to a free four-part video series that I have that teaches you how to can.

We go over the safety of canning, we go over the supplies and the equipment that you'll need, and then we actually

get into the kitchen together and I show you every single step of the canning process so that

you can follow along. There's free downloads, there's all the resources that you need to be

able to complete the canning project all by yourself.

So if you've ever wanted to learn how to can or you just want to brush up on your canning safety,

go to homesteadingfamily.com forward slash podcast dash canning.

little bit about the homestead journey, about technology, family life, all things that we all deal with

every day. So looking forward to having Rory on here in

just a moment. But before that, I got to say thank you to our sponsor for making this episode

possible today. Our sponsor today is Laymans. Thank you, Layman's for making this happen.

Now, you know, one of the things we love about laymen's is the sheer variety of tools that they offer,

whether you're out in the garden,
