Can It Up: October

Posted on 01 October 2013

We’re entering our second year of #CanItUp! In some ways, it seems so quick; in others, so very long.

Tomatoes, September’s secret ingredient, proved to be fertile ground. But we’re now entering the more challenging fall and winter months.

What are we preserving with in October?

Let’s Can It Up!

• First, review the Can It Up ground rules.
• During the month of October (that means up to October 31st), 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 November 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 October 31st. 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.

October’s selected ingredient is pears! I almost forgot about how much I love pears — they should be your preserve’s shining star.

P.S. If you have any questions/feedback/whatever, email me at allfourburners {{at}} gmail {{dot}} com.
