marshac Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 So a few questions from a new member :) How does the cannery work? What are the prices? Do you need to make an appointment? Thanks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenamarie Posted May 10, 2009 Report Share Posted May 10, 2009 Check out Provident Living Home There you can search for a cannery near you and find out their hours, and if you need an appointment. I know at the one near me (Portland, OR) you need to have an appointment made, and you have to come in a group of eight, except for Tuesdays (or Thursdays? I forget) when they allow "walk-ins".On the website also you'll find an order form which gives you prices according to how much you want, and what kind of packaging you want (cans or mylar bags). The cannery staff LOVE IT if you fill out one of these order forms beforehand and bring it with you when you do your canning so they know how many bags of food to bring out for you to can.

rameumptom Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Your ward, or perhaps stake, should also have a canning specialist. You can work with that individual as well, to see if they schedule ward/stake trips to the cannery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havejoy Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 I always call, make an appointment, and myself and a few friends go up and spend 4 hours canning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wardy Posted July 16, 2011 Report Share Posted July 16, 2011 Hi, I was interested in either using or purchasing from one of your canneries. I am very attracted to your reasonable prices. I recently took one of the l LDS ham radio classes and the instructors were very good. Keep up the good work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
