We have canned a few weeks in a row now! It feels so good to have produce put up, but it is so much work. My mom, grandma, and sister have been helping, that makes it go so much faster. We ended up getting 43 Quart of juice out of 2 bushel of tomatoes. We also got 19 Quart out of 1 bushel of peaches. The next week we made salsa, and we got 17 pints and 24 jelly jars, and 13 pints of diced tomatoes! Mark and I put up 5 pint of pickles, 14 quarts of green beans(so far) and with a little help from brie and my mom 13 quart of corn. My mother-in-law and I will still be doing applesauce. I think we are ready for a bad winter, which means we won't have one! Stiil it feels good to be stocked up!
