Fair Rules for Food Preservation

After the Kansas State Fair, the rules for all projects are reviewed and updated. For Food Preservation, please note the following important changes:

Removed publication date range “1995-present” and replaced it with “current resources listed below” including these updates in particular:

USDA Complete Guide to Home Canning, @2015
Ball Blue Book Guide to Preserving, Edition 37
Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving, @2015 and @2020

Other changes were grammatical in nature. Please review these and pass along to your 4-H leaders and members. It is important to use up-to-date recipes for food preservation for the best safety and quality.

 

About Karen Blakeslee

The Rapid Response Center was formed in 1995 as a resource for Kansas State University Research & Extension Agents. Resource topics included Food Science, Human Nutrition, Food Service, Textiles, Home Care and other consumer topics. Since that time, the Center has grown to be of valuable assistance to Kansas State University Extension Specialists in those areas.
