I have been talking about it for years now. It made me a bit nervous, broken glass, hot temperatures, pressure...but now - victory! I had a coupon for jars, and we just got a hot water bath at the store, and we started canning! Our garden was devoured by deer this year so we got absolutely no vegetables from it. We did get several handfuls of strawberries and blueberries, and our peach tree gave us 5 peaches! But they were consumed quickly! We picked up a couple bushel of peaches and started with them. It worked! We were so thrilled! The girls kept saying, "This is so old fashioned! Such homesteading!" Then, we were blessed abundantly by a dear friends who brought us pails of beans, potatoes, beets, and corn! And then neighbors generously gave us tomatoes! So with a bit of confidence under our belt and many helping hands, we got it all put away - minus what we ate! The kids just can't resist a raw bean!
Luk 10:2 Then He said to them, "The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest."

God is good to supply you - and the wildlife - with food to eat.
It is one of life's most satisfying pleasures...shelves filled with jars of home canned produce.
