The wife and I want to start canning. Various vegetables from the garden as well as meat from animals I take and soups and the like. We have no one to learn canning from so we bought The book Ball guide to preserving as a primer.
We want a pressure canner that's quality. We see them in the $100 range but also in the $300 range. Which should we get and why?
Also, is there a used market in canners? And if so where does one look?
We're interested in any suggestions but also suggestions on reading material related to the matter.
Thanks,
Bazoo
