Canning is the time-honored way of processing many soft fruits, vegetables and other ingredients to use over winter, allowing you to turn fresh food into delicious preserves that store safely for months.
Our range of home canning supplies has everything you need to get started with this productive hobby or to top up individual parts of your canning kit so you're ready for the new preserving season.
Find Essential Canning Supplies
Ace has the canning supply essentials you need to tackle any canning project. With canning jars, lids and rings from trusted brands like Ball, PurMason and Masontops, you’ll feel confident with every canning task at hand.
Home Canning Jars
Special canning jars are essential for successful canning, combining tough heat-proof construction with attractive looks for storage. Although you may be tempted to re-use store-bought jelly or pickle jars for canning, new jars made for the home canning process can ensure greater durability and the right fitting lids for an air-tight, germ-free seal. Ace Hardware stocks canning jars in sizes from 4 ounces up to 128 ounces with mini, regular and wide mouth sizes that are perfect for sauces, jellies, chunky pickles and more.
Canning Lids and Rings
Good canning jars will last a lifetime, but lids and rings need replacing to ensure a proper seal—particularly if you're canning highly acidic ingredients. Without a reliable air-tight seal, your canned goods could be contaminated with bacteria and spoiled.
Our selection of canning accessories, including canning lids and rings, fit canning jars with both regular and wide mouth sizes and are available either individually or as part of our bulk canning supplies selection to help you start canning for less.
