NOW I read the recommendation on pickled peaches...I canned some peach preserves and 3 quarts of peaches in a light syrup and cinnamon (for making cobbler later) I also juiced a case or so worth of dead ripe oranges I cleaned off one tree, I have another half dozen to go. Hoping for a couple with tarter oranges for marmalade

Well I missed getting to the figs, too much rain! So will try again tomorrow.

I have my hands full with tomatoes. Knocked out another 5 pints of tomato sauce earlier, and will probably finish out 4-5 quarts of salsa again tomorrow. I have so many tomatoes ready I have to make room to pick tomorrow. Since most of them are romas right now I'll keep going with the sauces. Once my celebrity tomatoes and lemon boy pick up, I'll start canning them whole and halved.

Hi everyone! I am new to this site and I have spent the last hour or so looking at various posts. I love the canning posts! I retired from the Navy a little over a year ago and moved to the countryside in NW Georgia. I am a city-girl turned country!

I had my very first garden this year and have canned collards, carrots, beets, 65 jars of various jellies, ams and chutneys, jalapeno and anahein peppers, green beans, dill pickles and relish, sweet relish and bread and butter pickles, tomatoes (cheery, roma, heirloom and lemon boy) and fermented/canned sauerkraut.

I am very interested in starting to raise chickens so I'll review those posts, too.

Nice to "meet" you and thanks for all of the recipe ideas!
