I became even further inspired by your "Grow Your Own" show, as I have recently started a business called The Good Jar (thegoodjar.com), which offers lessons in home preserving. My business partner and I have had vegetable gardens growing up and have continued to as adults. We have enjoyed preserving our summer's bounty for use year-round. My children have enjoyed in the process, and take pride in opening a jar of stewed tomatoes, the tomatoes of which they help pick. From the garden to preserving, it is rewarding and a healthy way of life.
