Life with The Canning Diva: Home Canning, Meals in a Jar, Seed Saving, and Food Security | The Changing Earth Podcast

Sara F. Hathaway welcomes Diane Devereaux — The Canning Diva — for a packed episode on home canning, pressure canning meals in a jar, seed saving, soil health, grid-down canning, reusable lids, and preserving real food for dogs and cats. Diane shares how a disaster-management career and a Michigan hog-farm childhood became The Canning Diva, why botulism fear keeps people from canning meat, how to stop siphoning on a gas stove, why bone-in meat can shorten processing time, and how families can build weeknight food security without a 40-acre homestead. Books discussed: From Seed to Table, Meals in a Jar, and Preserving For Your Pets. Find Diane at canningdiva.com. Dream, survive, thrive.
