We're Cooking Now!

Linda Chappell, from UA County Extension, provided a workshop for FCC members and visitors on July 28th, at First Christian Church Berryville. Participants learned how to prepare and safely can various tomato based foods. All of the ingredients used came from local gardens, including the FCC's All Natural Community Garden. Many thanks to Linda Chappell for a fun and productive workshop!

Busy participants slicing, dicing, and preparing ingredients for tomato sauce, salsa, and stewed tomatos.

Alicia Keever superintends the making of a fine new Salsa soon to be on shelves everywhere: "Alicia's All-Natural FCC Salsa!"

Salsa Underway! We used the recipe provided on the back of the Mrs. Wagers' Salsa package which is commonly available at all local grocers. The recipe called for tomatoes, onions, peppers, and cilantro--all from local gardens!


Canned tomatoes from the garden! What a satisfying conclusion to a terrific and practical workshop. Thank you, Linda Chappell and Carroll County Extension!
