The garden is about finished. There are a few remaining tomatoes and then another season will be over. The last couple of days I have been working on the last of the canning.
Grapes were worked down and jelly was made. There was an abundant harvest and I was able to share half of it.
One gadget that is extremely useful is the scale. I didn't realize how much I would use.
I pickled some green tomatoes as a gift for my father-in-law. Mike is always disappointed if he doesn't have few jars under the Christmas tree. :)
This is my work area as I working this week. Notice the open window? The weather has been wonderful! It made working such a pleasure.
Here are the goodies from this week. Ready to washed and put away.
My mom and I combine many of the items in our garden. This is what we were able to put up this year between the two gardens.
8 1/2 pints Grape Jelly
3 quarts Grape Juice
5 pints Pickled Green Tomatoes
96 quarts Green Beans
120 pints Green Beans
108 pints Tomatoes
I am thankful for a successful season and the blessed by the addition to the pantry!
May your day be filled with joy and contentment!
