Anyway canning season is here. I have plenty of jam and dilly beans so this year I decided just to can pickles from the cucumbers I am growing. They turned out pretty well. I only did six pints to test it out but they look great. I also canned cherries off my tree which I gave away to my mother and mother-in-law.
I attached a few pictures of this year's canning so far and some of the other canning that I have done in years' past.
I'm not ruling out any more canning. My dad always has loads of raspberries which get turned into jam and I still might hit the U-Pick fields.
THIS YEAR SO FAR:
PREVIOUS YEARS:
Nice! I love the way canned fruits and veggies look. My favorite part of the county fair is going and looking at the entrants to the canning competition. Also, the quilting competition.
ReplyDeleteThose peppers from "previous years" look fantastic.
Hey thanks Eric! Yeah since my mom was a home-ec teacher, I learned to sew and can pretty early on but I really love canning because I like spicy stuff and pickled goods so I can really get exactly what I want for basically free.
ReplyDeleteJam is also pretty sweet to can.
