Why We Need the Skills of Our Elders (And How Canning Helps Preserve Them)

Learning to can isn’t just about food—it’s about reclaiming freedom, resilience, and connection. One jar at a time, we can keep their stories alive.

Meet Chef Molly Bravo


I call myself the quintessential domestic goddess, inspired to buy local, eat seasonal and make great food from scratch, for the people I love.

I love to cook and relish in entertaining, decorating and gardening. I’m deeply inspired by nourishing traditions, homesteading and real food. I love all things old fashioned and I’m striving to preserve family traditions and create new ones with my own family.
