Canning season in full swing!!

St

Have been busy harvesting, canning, dehydrating, drying, and pickling!! Been a great harvest season so far except for peppers...bad pepper year due to weather :( I even found out a neighbor has a freeze dryer he barely uses so I am getting to dry stuff thisbyear too as he allows!! Got my 1st big honey harvest (big for us..Basically enough for the year) and my bees are super super happy. Got all my crops switched to fall crops and am ready for apples and whatnot to keep going but a little lull right now in harvest and I am enjoying it! And most proud that I was able to grow enough excess...on purpose...to give 500 lbs so far of fresh produce to the school district can give away fresh produce boxes to families in need since the community pantry runs via the school so shut in summer. Been such a great summer and am gonna enjoy every last second before I lose my kiddos to school again. Maybe now I can finish redoing my canning pantries so my old busted one can match the new ones I built haha
