The Wiley Canning Company Cookbook: Recipes to Preserve the Seasons

＂Chelsea J. O’Leary focuses equally on seasonal recipes and the foundational knowledge required to preserve food with sharp intuition and holistic understanding. No matter where you live--a downtown high-rise, suburban bungalow, or countryside ranch--these recipes are for you. In fact, most recipes can be created using produce picked up from any local farmers’ market. As you use this cookbook, you will become a steward of your local land, farms, and home.＂--

Chelsea J. O’Leary is a Nashville-based artist, entrepreneur, and home food preserver. She is the founder and owner of Wiley Canning Company, a company dedicated to canning, pickling, and preserving local and seasonal fruits and vegetables. Chelsea creates recipes and hosts workshops to teach others to can, pickle, and preserve as well. She explores photography through both a film and digital format, and she is especially drawn to photographing fruits and vegetables.

When she is not canning, pickling, preserving, or creating photographs, she values and seeks meaningful, curiosity-driven dialogue with others. She loves to write and run, in the woods or through the city, and she cherishes time spent with her husband, Jared, and son, Sullivan. You might find them at a local farmers’ market, park, or nearby wooded trail.
