Her interest in gardening and preserving began over 50 years ago when she was a student at the University of Illinois. Since then she has always had a garden where she lived in California, Kansas and currently in Reno. She preserves her harvest by canning, freezing, dehydrating, pickling, and her husband is a home brewer making beer from the hops they grow.
