Won’t be doing it for a few weeks yet, but plan on putting a bunch away this year. Garden is running a little behind here, as always.

We're about done here. Canned a bunch of green beans, tomato juice, dill and sweet pickles, green peas, some relish, and wife will make a recipe of red pepper relish if we ever get any red bell peppers. We freeze the corn, purple hull peas, green peas, butter peas (like a butter bean), and okra. We also can beet pickles every other year, canning enough to last 2 years, and a canning or two of pork tenderloin a year. Used to can a lot of jelly and jam.................cherry, strawberry, and blackberry. But, as I've gotten older, I don't care for that kind of stuff as much. I still have pinto beans growing, and will let them dry on the vine, shell them, and put in the freezer to be cooked whenever we want them. Been a busy year putting stuff up.

I just put several quarts of huckleberries in the freezer last night. No canning, exactly, but that's the best way my family has found to store them long-term. Rinse and drain them thoroughly, put them in clean jars with lids very tight, and put them in the freezer. They will last for several years, and only leech a little bit of that huckleberry scent/flavor.

Yep we’re gettin ready to do the huckleberry run here shortly. Any and all berries I freeze on cookie sheets, then vacuum pack em, works good and they don’t get crushed in the process

This setup works damn good, doesn’t heat up the house on warm summer days, doesn’t stink up the house doin albacore yellowfin or red meat. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/zfrGBkmm/C4-B4-F54-B-42-E6-49-FE-A6-DA-F1-A551318-E38.jpg)
