Mrs. Wages Canning & Pickling Blends

Home canning dates back hundreds of years and has enjoyed a revival in recent years. With the help of Mrs. Wages pickling and canning spices your family can enjoy the wholesome goodness of home canned fruits, jellies and vegetables. Yes, there really was a Mrs. Wages. She was a feisty lady who loved to put up food from her garden. In the late '60s, a friend, Mr. Erskin Dacus of Dacus Drug Co., dropped by the store. He was looking for a good pickling lime recipe to add to a line of home canning products he was putting together and was overheard by shoppers, who immediately recommended Mrs. Wages' recipe. And the rest is history; Dacus tried Mrs. Wages' recipe and bought it on the spot and the Mrs. Wages family recipe was an instant hit. Today, her line of home canning products is still produced with the same fussy commitment to quality and wholesomeness that made it a favorite 50 years ago. Better yet, it now includes a full array of products for pickling, canning, jelly making and more.
