All the local general stores carried products to help preserve all that garden produce. Now, it can be a bit more challenging to find the supplies you need to can your summer harvest. I’ve put together this shopping list of favorite canning supplies so you can easily find what you need.

Ball Wide-Mouth Mason Canning Jar 1 Qt., Case of 12 – Ball is a classic. I have many heirloom jars that Ball made back in the late 1800’s.
– These jars are perfect for canning tomatoes.
Ball Home Canning Kit-This kit includes everything you need to start canning except the veggies
Ball Regular Dome Canning Jar Lid, Box of 12 – You can use jars over and over, but you’ll need to use new lids each time.
Ball Fruit Jell Liquid Pectin – Most jelly recipes call for pectin.
canning book Ball® Complete Book of Home Preservation 400 delicious and creative recipes for today – This book is a great reference for people who want to can a wide variety of fruits and veggies.
