harvest time

Well during this busy harvest season I just was missing my homestead buddies. So for I wanted to come back to keep up with my friends and to blog some more on farming.

Today I am harvesting corn to freeze, green beans to can, tomatoes to can. And Dh is butchering 15 chickens for the freezer. A big harvest day. I have already done many beans, tomatoes and froze 30 pints of corn. Oh and the peaches goodness I have 49 quarts from one tree. The other two aren't ready yet. I made peach jam also. I am loving all this creativeness with the food. It is really great to have a small grocery bill!!

Glad to be back and hoping to catch up soon on how everyone's harvest is doing. And if you have any good recipes for yellow crook neck squash I would love them.

What a wonderful harvest you are having! I love hearing about it. I bet it is fun but hard work at the same time! I love the contentment I feel when my pantry and freezer are full of good things. Don't you?
