A spring class series hosted by the University of Alaska Fairbanks Cooperative Extension Service will teach how to create homemade cleaners, pickle vegetables and can last year’s frozen meat, fish, berries and fruit.

Sarah Lewis, an Extension health, home and family development agent, will also teach a session on exercises to prepare for summer.

Lewis will lead the classes via Zoom on Mondays from 5:30-7 p.m.

On Feb. 2, Lewis will discuss the science behind cleaning and how to make simple, effective cleaners using inexpensive ingredients.

On Feb. 9, Lewis will teach participants how to turn their wild, store-bought or garden vegetables — not just cucumbers — into small batches of tasty pickles to store in the refrigerator.

On Feb. 16, the class will focus on making probiotic pickles, such as sauerkraut, kimchi and fermented vegetables, using lacto-fermentation with salt.

In the Feb. 23 class, Lewis will introduce simple exercises to help Alaskans get their muscles and bones ready for the busy summer months.

On March 9, Lewis will teach water-bath canning skills for people of all experience levels, with a focus on frozen berries and fruits, and will offer creative canning recipes.

On March 16, participants can clear last year’s frozen meat and fish from their freezers and learn to safely and efficiently process it in jars, using a pressure canner.

Each class costs $12.
