  “Putting it on the Table”, a local food series 
at the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History takes a 
bite out of
JAM with Tyler and Anna Keyes 
of  Little Bay Jams in Orleans. Little Bay Jams 
is a business that represents the home canning 
portion of our lives. Food preservation is a 
colonial pastime that Little Bay is happy to feel 
connected to as society's commodity and 
consumption obscures the line between us and our 
diets. According to Tyler, “It is satisfying to 
be mindful of where our fruits and vegetables 
come from and to have a relationship with those 
who care for them since strides in agriculture 
and global trade have made home canning far from 
a necessity in today’s busy world. It is 
important to keep this practice alive so that we 
may not take for granted the bare and humble 
origins of our processed food. There is strategy 
involved in everything from what types of produce 
to pick and when, to preparing and processing 
into a jar that will remain shelf-stable 
throughout the winter. We will lead you through 
the tools and steps required to preserve your own harvest.” Tasting included!

Members $5 / Non-Members $7
