Recipes from New York's Countryside: The Heritage Canning Kitchen
*The event has already taken place on this date: Sat, 08/26/2017
Our farm lies in the fertile well drained plain south of Lake Ontario. Early settlers in the 1820’s identified growing conditions - sandy soils and climate protected by our wonderful, deep lake - as perfect for fruit growing and especially perfect for the tender fruits. Therefore the food processing industry flourished. Every community featured a cannery or preserving factory. In Hamlin Duffy Mott made applesauce; in Albion Hunt’s canned tomatoes; in Holley apple cider was processed and vinegar bottled; in Hilton there were apple dry houses and cherry packers; in Brockport frozen food factories flourished; in Williamson sweet cherries were ‘brined’; in Medina Heinz bottled catsup. Our whole area was a flurry of activity.

And in the homes of the farmland the pantries were full - canned pears, chili sauce,stewed plums, bottled raspberries, catsups and mincemeats, chutneys and relishes, jams and marmalades.
And, at Hurd Orchards we continue this tradition. Let us share with you the wealth of family experience and authentic regional recipes. This luncheon will be a treat beyond compare.
