She doesn’t like to garden, so purchases in season, has been known to barter, and of course, appreciates anything free, which all goes into jars. Sue Ellen White began canning in the early 1970s, when she moved to Whidbey and has a big garden, orchard, chickens and a Little Free Library at her home.
