On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me…
Bernardin is the leader in Home Canning in Canada. I posted about the Home Canning Starter Kit last month and I can’t wait to get my garden going next summer.
The Home Canning Starter Kit comes with everything you need to get started with canning. It includes a 21 quart canner pot, a rack, jar lifter, funnel, magnetic lid lifter, bubble remover, 4 pack of decorative jars with lids, Original Crystals pectin and a very detailed recipe booklet. All you need is the yummy fruit or vegetables from your garden or farmer’s market.
If you get a chance, read my Bernardin review. This is a great gift for anyone interested in canning, gardening or eating healthier. And the great thing about this gift is it comes complete, meaning that the person you give it to doesn’t have to go out and buy other parts before they can use it.
Bernardin has generously offered one lucky This Bird’s Day reader a Home Canning Starter Kit of their own as a giveaway.
