Your harvest is in. Time to think about preserving. Cathy Isom tells you how to save your summer harvest so you can enjoy it this winter. That’s coming up on This Land of Ours.
Canning or Freezing-Preserving the Harvest
In the later months of summer sometimes the harvests are just too bountiful to eat. So instead of wasting, save your homegrown food well into the winter months by either canning or freezing.
Common garden vegetables with less acidity include green beans, peas, peppers, onions, corn, greens, carrots, asparagus, broccoli, and Brussels sprouts. If freezing any of these, make sure none have any type of bruising or trouble. Blanching your vegetables before freezing is also recommended.
