UNL website features science-based home food preservation information
With the increasing interest in eating foods grown locally and a return to home food preservation, UNL Extension offers consumers web-based, accurate, up-to-date information on canning, freezing, and drying food.
As home food preservation, especially canning, climbs in popularity, the number of websites and online chats on the topic have increased. The advice is sometimes based on what grandmother did -- or personal opinion. Read more about the extension website on Today@UNL.
