    What are you canning now?

    I make jam and cordial. I also keep a gallon or two of frozen raspberries on hand for desserts in the middle of the winter. Fresh sun ripened raspberries, vodka, and cane sugar. Eight weeks later and the cordial is ready to strain and bottle. After a year it gets even better. Never lasts a...

    What are you canning now?

    I have a old fashioned Potager garden. A soup garden if you will. It's fenced against the chickens, deer, and rabbits. I can grow just about anything in raised beds but not a lot. Since it's just for my husband and I, I don't waste anything. We eat fresh out of it everyday and I freeze or can...
