May we individually and collectively be ever self-reliant. This is our heritage and our obligation. The Lord has urged that his people save for the rainy days, prepare for the difficult time, and put away for emergencies, [3 months] supply or more of bare necessities so that when the flood, the earthquake, the famine, the hurricane, the storms of life, our families can be sustained through the dark days." - President Spencer W. Kimball

Brecksville Cannery/Home Storage Center Information - Updated Nov. 2013


As of July 1st, 2013 the Cannery (Home Storage Center) only has prepackaged and bulk food items for sale. People no longer have the option to can their own items at the cannery, however the cannery does have 3 canners that people can check out for a week at a time to can their own items at home (or at a church activity). Many of the items previously available to be canned are still available, just in prepackaged or bulk form. but, to be sure they have the items you would like to order, you should call the cannery at 440-526-4057

If they only have an item in bulk, but you want a few cans, they may be able to help them if you give them enough notice. So, for example. They only have black beans in 25 lbs bags, but no one buys them. If someone wants 5 cans of black beans, they just need to give them a week's notice so the cannery people can put them in cans for them. You can email them your order form to brecksvillehomestorage@hotmail.com
