Success Stories
“My first accomplishment was to learn the skill of water bath and pressure canning. It's been an incredible journey. Going along with that was food preservation. I'm as ready as as I'll every be to get through this winter, and dreaming of next year's harvest already!” - Jeannie D.
I completed the Abundant Pantry Canning class. These jars have fed our family many nights! What a huge blessing! I am so grateful to have these canning skills - my family credits this course with being a game changer for our homestead. Now I am working to shift my mindset that canning isn't a harvest season endeavor, but a year round part of lifestyle.

Now I ferment various veggies and keep scobys, dehydrated, keep layer hens, maintain sourdough starter, garden, mill my own grain, water bath AND pressure can! These are all things I never thought I'd be doing and yet, here I am! It's an accomplished feeling and I can't wait to grow more in the NEXT year!” - Nicole H.

We legit wouldn't be here without the tremendous amount of tips, tricks and encouragement we have received the HF resources.” - Stephanie A.
