Dill Pickles is one of the easiest canning foods to make.  I love this recipe because it’s EASY to make. We use Mrs. Wage Dill Pickle Mix and honestly, we love it. Here I will show you how to water bath and can your own at home. I like to put up enough to have over winter, and next year when my cucumbers are ready to harvest, do it all again. I simply love canning and everything that goes with it.

We garden every year, but this year our garden didn't do so well, with all the rains this summer and scorching hot temps a lot of gardens just didn't make much if anything at all, I do hope you enjoy this recipe, it's simple, and your pickles will stay crisp!~
