~* August Canning Swap * Secret Exchange * Sign Up CLOSED *~

My tomatoes didn't do very good this year - too much heat and not enough rain

But my peppers loved the heat!

But we have some great Amish communities near me that sell produce for really cheap. I found 25lb boxes of tomatoes for $6.25 each...I bought 4 boxes and the peaches that I canned I bought for $6.50 per 3/4 bushel boxes. I think in the end it is all worth it!

I still have pears to do when they get ripe (mom's tree is loaded)
Am also going to try and find some blueberries...last year I found them for $.50 a pint at a local stand...
 
I made a gallon of the clausen style refrigerator pickles Tuesday night. Now my cucumber vines are about done for the year so its off to more tomato based recipes!
 
I am so excited I get to teach someone tonight to make pickles and tomato sauce. We are then going to can for the first time. She's excited and I'm glad to have someone under the age of 25 care to do this!!!
