You know how essential small kitchen appliances are to your food preparation.

To be truly prepared for the coming harvest and storing the food you have worked so hard to grow requires the proper canners. To make the process of preparing the food efficient and more enjoyable, time saving tools are required. Whether it's manual or electric, the right tool for the job saves a tremendous amount of time and makes big jobs a breeze.

Quality hand powered tools not only save time in food preparation, they are not dependent on electricity.

We have hand powered appliances for grinding grain, stringing beans, peeling apples, pitting cherries and making sauces. These wonderful 'machines' are so safe, easy and even fun to operate, you can engage the assistance of children.

If you are tackling a large crop or attempting 'mass production', the use of electrical appliances make all the difference in the world.
Our  dehydrators come with the option of additional trays.  Blenders can puree fruits and vegetables for leathers (roll ups) in a matter of minutes. Electric food slicers, and meat grinders can have food ready for the jar or freezer in a fraction of the time it can be done by hand. 

Don't wait until the garden is in the kitchen, prepare for a big harvest now.

The kitchen is not just the place where we prepare food.

It's called the heart of the home for a reason. It’s a place where we enjoy our meals, drink a cup of coffee while making plans for the day, and serve up hot cocoa after playing in the snow. This is where everybody congregates during family gatherings. And this where the harvest is gathered in. Working in the kitchen nurtures the soul while preserving the food to nurture the body.
