WE LOVE VEGGIES FROM THE GARDEN!
This is my counter on my island...
beautiful Acorn, Yellow Crook-neck, and Zucchini squash.
I have done a lot of preserving lately.
Both canning and freezing.
Here is one day Natalie and I did 84 quarts of green beans.
The next day Tyler helped me can 29 pints of Plum Jam & Plum/Strawberry/Raspberry Jam.
A batch of peppers, carrots, zucchini, strawberries, & yellow crook-neck squash.
Natalie Frank and Kiah cleaning veggies.
Our first batch of tomatoes a few weeks ago from the pots on my back porch.
We have canned many quarts of green beans from the family garden at Tyler's parent's house.

Dinner!
We all love fresh veggie dinners. Even my kids lick their plates clean!

It all looks so yummy. I love people who can. I wish I did, but I pretty much just go hang out at peoples houses while they can, and enjoy how homey it is. There's just something about canning that's so comforting. I could just sit and look at your pics for hours....yes, I know I'm weird. :)
Yum!!! I love, love, love, this time of year with all the boutious veggies. MOM

That post just makes me sad... for me. Not for you. That is awesome! I just miss all those veggies. Can't wait to have you're domestic skills rub off on me. :)
Holy cow, your "Family Garden" sounds amazing! I was surprised at first, wondering where your massive garden was, but then I saw it is at Tyler's parents house. That is amazing! It looks so yummy to eat! I have never really grown green beans, but Tom always wants to...it must run in your family! I really think you appreciate and enjoy your food more when you harvest it yourself.
So....I have at least that many onions....what are you going to do with THOSE???? Can you bottle onions????
Looking sooo delicious! You should take a pic of your garden, I would love to see it! Great job!
