Using vegetable scraps are a good way to make vegetable broth. You are also correct that a pressure canner is the safe way to can meats, vegetables and soups.
Unfortunately, the National Center for Home Food Preservation doesn’t have specific canning recommendations and times for vegetable broth. You can freeze your scraps until you have enough saved up to make the vegetable broth. Instead of canning the broth, you can freeze it in freezer containers.
