Impact Report Shiprock, NM Jam and Jelly Preservation Workshop In recent years the need for food preservation training has increased. A “Holiday Jam and Jelly Food Preservation” class was offered by both the McKinley County and Tribal Home Economist’s at the Tribal Extension Office. The class was attended by 3 women from Shiprock who had never canned before. They learned the basics of food preservation, how to increase processing time for higher altitudes and prepared two recipes Grape Jelly from the 4-H curriculum and Apple Butter from the Canning Home Guide curriculum, both were water bath recipes. At the end of the session they tasted the recipes and each participant took home samples of each recipe to share with their families.
