dang kitty youve been busy all summer canning an freezing.how long will all that goodstuff last you.

 

[Farmer Kitty]

Depends. Didn't have greenbeans or tomato juice left. Only a couple of pts of Straw. jam were left and a few pts of other jams that I didn't make this year. And some beet pickles and slices-didn't make me anymore this year either.
I'm hoping things will carry through until the new comes out of the garden next year-maybe even have some left!

 

[wynedot55]

well yall will be eating good.

 

[Farmer Kitty]

I forgot the Rhubarb sauces!

I've added them now.

 

[Farmer Kitty]

I've put the garden to rest. It was to dry and hard to till and we've had rain today so when it dries out enough that it's not going to stick to everything I will see about that.

I do have a pail of greenbeans and a box of tomatoes to do something with. Then I'm going to investigate Miss P's threads!

 

[Farmer Kitty]

4 pts of greenbeans-the last of the year.

i know your glad canning season is done.now you can relax an enjoy all your canned goodies.

 

[Farmer Kitty]

Done? Who says it's done? I still have some tomatoes I need to check and see if there's enough ready. And then there is the chickens that I can start eye balling to see if they are ready to process in about another week for the first couple. Some of them will be canned. I'm looking at maybe browning some hamburger up and canning it to have ready for nights when I need something quick-especially when fieldwork returns in the spring!

Nope! Difinately not done! But now I can do it more at my own pace instead of the gardens!
