ORONO — University of Maine Cooperative Extension plans to offer a new series of monthly webinars about preserving Maine foods, beginning with one scheduled from noon to 12:45 p.m. Tuesday, June 15.
Preserving the Maine Harvest begins with a session about drying, or dehydrating, food as a preservation method. Webinars to follow will focus on boiling water bath canning, pressure canning, fermenting and more. Instructors share recipes and techniques in an interactive format in this series that continues through the fall.
Registration is required; a $5 fee per session is optional. To receive the link and resources, register at extension.umaine.edu.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
