Harvest Monday 09/06/2012
This past week I started getting a few more fruit and
veggies coming in. I now have to start sitting down and making a list of what
needs to get canned, freeze or eaten fresh before I just end up freezing
everything and forgetting to enjoy it fresh from the garden!

Are you going to make saurkraut?
ReplyDeleteDavid- That is the plan, but I think I planted way too much cabbage...LOL
ReplyDeleteSour cherries, delicious! Oh, and cabbage too. I love to add dried sour cherries to sauteed cabbage, with perhaps some shredded duck confit, that 's a favorite combination around here. Lovely harvests.
ReplyDeleteDidn't realize you were so far north. You have even more of a challenge than Wilderness (Growing & Cooking) does in the Adirondacks. I bet those cherries were good. No pies made with them?
ReplyDeleteQuite 25 lbs for the week - that's a lot in my book. I'll be happy if I get to even 1/4 of that amount this year.
ReplyDeleteYour harvest looks fabulous. I'm eating cabbage this week, but it was picked back in late June or early July. I love that it keeps so well.
ReplyDeleteThose cherries still look great. Currently figuring out how to steal them :)
ReplyDeleteLoving watching your harvest coming in. If feeling ever so slightly jealous :)
Oh, and btw, August is the 8th month, not the 9th ;)
Oh wow... those cherries are wonderful! So nice harvest you have got.
ReplyDeleteCiao.
Orchidea- Thank you
ReplyDeleteRowena- I was pretty happy to finally be getting a "large" harvest!
Marcia-Yep all the way up in Canada. Its a shorter growing season in Saskatchewan, but we still get a lot! No pies....but I can always make some later :)
Michelle- Thank you. i have never had cherries and cabbage together sounds pretty yummy with duck!
