The Greene County Extension Office is accepting canned items for the state wide Jams and Jellies Canning Competition at the Tennessee State Fair this month.
The contest is open to all Tennessee residents 19 and older. You can drop off your items at the Extension Office on 303 Takoma Avenue. Office hours are from 8 AM to 5 PM.
If you’ve been waiting to get rid of those jams and jellies, now is the time to take advantage! You can win cash money with this statewide contest. The office will enter your items into the contest and transport them to the State Fair.
All entries must be entered in clean, standard canning jars (no specialty jars) with new, single use two-piece lids and bands. No decorative overlays or accessories on the jars please. Exhibits should be canned using tested recipes issued in 2009 or later.
*Items entered will not be returned.*
