Canning, which is a really bad name since we are really "jarring," is pretty simple. Use the link on the previous page,
https://nchfp.uga.edu/publications/p...ions_usda.html, which has instructions and
recipes for canning/jaring as well as other
food preservation techniques.
If you live in the US, many states have an Extension office at the state and county level that has information on
food preservation and have
classes. It really is not rocket science, if one can follow a recipe then one can can/jar food.
A good pressure cooker, which can be used as a
water bath, and a few "tools" such as these,

https://www.amazon.com/Prepworks-by-...FHWC2KMWXQMTJ0 is all the
equipment you need.
Just get wide mouth jars since they are easier to get food into when preserving. The old small mouth jars make it easier to make a mess.
Last night I opened a jar of chili I made in 2014. It was really good.
