My morning..... That moment when you hear a bird come down the wood stove chimney... you now have to get him out... somehow... without getting soot. all. over. your. house! Yes this is actually happening as I'm writing this e-mail to you. (I'll get it figured out) So with that random information about my life! On to what I wanted to share.

As you may know I just opened up enrollment in my new online courses. I’m taking members for the next week and then the courses will be closed again! Don’t wait!

It is called Simply Canning School, and it is designed for a beginning canner to get you from zero jars filled - to a pantry full of produce, jam, meals in jars, pickles and more. :) (or gift baskets… oh yes! the holidays are coming!)

I have two things for you in this e-mail.

First - I’ll answer a great question I got in my e-mail yesterday.

Second - You are invited to an informal webinar tonight. Details at the end of this e-mail.

The Great Question

In my e-mails yesterday, I had a question about the course come through that I thought I’d clarify for everyone here. (btw, if you have any questions about the course please feel free to hit reply and send me an e-mail)

Cindy asked if the classes are built in a way that she can access the course content at any time OR if there are specific times and days that she would need to be logged in.

My answer…. access at your convenience! She is a lot like me and wants to do things on her own timetable. Here is my full answer, I’ve worked in several ways you can get help.

“All the lessons are online and you have access at your convenience. They are pre-recorded videos and tutorials. You can work through the series of videos whenever you have the time. I'll be adding new tutorials regularly. Members will be updated when anything new is added.

There is a comments area where you can ask questions. I'll be monitoring these and will get answers back asap. Or you can always just send an e-mail if you prefer.

There is also a facebook group where I'll communicate with members and I hope to grow a community there... but I realize not everyone loves facebook. So any live trainings that are done there will also be added to the course area as replays. So Facebook is definitely an optional component.”

I hope this clarifies the design of the school for anyone who had the same questions. Watch for an e-mail from me on Friday. I’m going to create a walkthrough video so you can see just what it looks like from the inside.

The Webinar Information

You are all invited to an informal webinar I’ll be hosting tonight. I’m a firm believer that knowledge conquers fear. If you understand how the process works, you don’t have a reason to worry.

If you are afraid of canning… come tonight! It will be full of good information for you. Even if you don’t purchase my courses, that’s ok. I’m really all about getting people started. It will be informal, (no fancy slide decks and high technology tonight!) Just me sharing information with you. I’ll have a short question/answer time at the end of the presentation. Here is the link to join.

You are invited to a Zoom webinar.

When: Sep 26, 2018 7:00 PM Mountain Time (US and Canada)
