Processing

I have spent hours and hours this summer trying to lay aside food for the winter to feed my hungry horde and thought it would be fun to show some pictures. I currently have about 75 pints of jam, 32 quarts of pears, 14 quarts tomato sauce, 53 pounds frozen blueberries, 20 frozen zucchini bread, several baggies filled with zucchini candy and last but not least fruit leather. I still have peaches I need to buy and process and am still getting yams, tomatoes and zucchini from the garden. Oh and the kiwi should be ripe pretty soon. Plus I have about six rabbits ready to butcher and one rooster. I admit I will be glad when harvest time is over I am tired of standing in the kitchen.

  1. Wow! You've been working your tail off! Frozen blueberries are my absolute fave! I don't know why there aren't any U-Pick blueberry farms out here. Maybe I'm just missing them? Anyway - good for you. All of that should last you at least a week, right? ;)
