About this Event
In this class, students will learn about the canning process by making low sugar, natural pectin Jelly and Relish. Both make excellent gifts for Christmas or anytime of the year. The instructor will also discuss dry canning and give ideas for additional gifts.
The instructor for this class is Pamela Smith. Pamela is our Mercantile Manager and has her own catering company. She has been using the canning method to preserve fruits and vegetables for many years.

Advanced registration is required one week prior to the date of the class unless approved by the Hagood Mill Staff and the Instructor. Students can purchase tickets online or by calling the Hagood Mill at 864.898.2936.
Why take Canning for Christmas at the Hagood Mill?
The Hagood Mill Historic is on the National Registry of Historic Places. Stepping on the grounds here is like stepping back in time. The centerpiece is one of the oldest surviving working grist mills in the state of South Carolina. The site also boasts historic log cabins, a cotton gin, a moonshine still, and a visitor center and gift shop. Hagood Mill is also home to the Hagood Creek Petroglyph Site, the only protected and most accessible rock art site in the state.
Schedule a private group class
The Hagood Mill can schedule a class based on the availability of you and your friends. If you can gather a group of 2-6 people, we can work with you on creating the class when you want. We are also available for wedding parties or any other special occasion that you would like to celebrate creatively. Contact Kim Clevenger at [email protected] to learn more.
