Cannery with the Parentals

This past weekend, we went down to visit my family in Colorado Springs. While we were there, we went with my parents to the church cannery to do some canning for our food storage. We also got to see the backroom as well as the Bishop's storehouse next door since we were the only ones there. The couple that runs the cannery was very nice in assisting us and showing us around!


Here we are! All ready to can away!


It was fun to can with Mom & Dad. Since we've never done it before, it was nice to have their expertise! Jar, Mom & Dad getting ready to get busy!


Jar & Mom getting the oatmeal in the cans. Oatmeal was a bit messy!


Good thing Jarad is so strong so he could lift the heavy bags of food!


After we got it all into cans, my Dad put moisture packets in and sealed them up for us!

Fun to get more things for our supply! Hope to do it again soon!
