About Tomato Time: Sauces and Salsa with Culinary Educator Cara Monteleone

It’s tomato season! Join our culinary educator for this hands-on class on how to prepare your own salsa and tomato sauce using tomatoes from our Friendship Garden. Cara will demonstrate how to prep and cook, sterilize, pack, and process a garden salsa using a water bath canning method. We’ll also discuss other methods of tomato preservation.

Each participant will take home their own jar of salsa that has been canned for shelf storage as well as a container of homemade oven roasted tomato sauce for the refrigerator.

This class is geared for beginners.
