Have you ever thought about preserving or drying foods but were afraid of making your family ill with food poisoning? Join us on Wednesday, June 5th at 6pm when Ann Hamilton, Food Safety Field Specialist at the UNH Cooperative Extension, talks about food preservation safety. In this introductory class, Ann will cover the latest research-based methods and recipes, and share her knowledge about preserving food safely at home. She will also discuss using boiling water canners, using pressure canners, and freezing and drying food.

 Spring has sprung (well, almost) and we're welcoming it in by creating Spring-themed bookmarks! We'll be crafting with colorful paper cutouts of flowers, birds, and other sunny things to make our bookmarks really sing. All supplies will be provided.

This program is for ages 13 and up, free, and open to the public. Registration is required. Please call the library at 432-7154 to register or for more information.
