We are putting up all the bounty from the garden. We have made liquors and jams with our fruit, 2 types of pickles with our beets, pickles with peppers, salsa with the tomatoes, and pickled green beans (we bought those in the market). We anticipate canning both tomatoes and tomato sauce later in the month when we will be overwhelmed by plum tomatoes. In addition, we have dried tomatoes, apricots, plums are ready to go into the drier (we have already canned some) and the figs will be coming ripe soon too!
We sent over all of our canning supplies. Unfortunately our proportion of lids for wide-mouthed vs. narrow mouthed jars was miscalculated and we have run out of lids for the narrow mouthed jars. Hopefully we will have enough wide-mouth lids to get us through the season until we can pick up more lids back in the US.
