Hands-on Preserving Fall Season Fruit & Vegetable Harvests NOW

September 19 | 11:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.
Looft Hall at Iowa Western

Council Bluffs Campus Student Center Room 152 - Cost: $40


Fall harvests bring a different set of flavors and preservation opportunities. In this hands-on
class, you’ll work with fall crops such as root vegetables, apples, and hardy greens to learn
practical preservation techniques. We’ll focus on methods like water bath canning, pickling, and
simple storage strategies that help extend shelf life and reduce waste. You’ll gain direct
experience preparing and preserving seasonal produce, along with guidance on adapting these
methods at home. Participants will leave with preserved items and the confidence to make the
most of their fall harvest.
