March canning recipes still have all the winter classic meal-in-a-jar recipes, but you’re starting to see some of the first spring produce peaking in for the season.

(Ps. I also run the blog Practical Self Reliance, which has information on all manner of food preservation techniques (cheesemaking, salt curing, winemaking) as well as just about everything else you’d need to learn to be self-reliant in this modern world. It has its own substack as well, and you can subscribe to practical self-reliance separately as well. That newsletter comes out weekly and covers canning, as well as everything else.)
