Abstract:

Ninety year old Marcia Albertson began an early enterprise as a traveling kitchen specialist in 1948. Her expertise was in canning and home preserving of foodstuffs, which she decided to share with communities in northeastern North Carolina. Traveling by buggy, Miss Marcia educated North Carolina youth on canning and preserving fruits and vegetables. Also along her travels, she \"organized canning clubs throughout Pasquotank County's 223 square miles.\"
