Jar work stays calmer when the lid, band, and label pieces are ready before the harvest reaches the counter. A few regular-mouth caps can keep small jars useful after opening. Wide-mouth caps can support quart and pint jars. A fresh lid-and-ring stack can help preserving days start with matching pieces.
