Can It Up: June

Posted on 04 June 2013

I’m still in the throes of severe jet lag and sleep deprivation. To top it off, I think I’m coming down with a cold. If you’re really, really lucky, in lieu of whining, I may share a few photos with you in a later post.

I am thrilled that we are in the throes of preserving season! Stone fruits started to appear here in earnest last month; I am dizzied by the possibilities.

Let’s talk about what we’re preserving with this month!

Let’s Can It Up!

• First, review the Can It Up ground rules.
• During the month of June (that means up to June 30th), please either link your post to this post using the tool below; email me your post or photo; post your post or photo in the Comments section of this post; or tweet your post or a photo using our hashtag #CanItUp. Or you can do all four! I will do a round-up on July 1st.
• Please mention Can It Up and link back to this post.
• To include your photo in the monthly roundup post, email it to me by June 30th. It must be at least 670 pixels wide and oriented horizontally (i.e. landscape).
• Don’t forget that your preserve must be water-bath canned. Read up on water-bath canning.

June’s selected ingredient is cherries! I preserved 4 pounds of cherries last month and can’t wait to get my hands on more! They should be your preserve’s shining star.
