Gardening and Canning Today . . . .

Today's agenda is very full.

*Feed and water animals.

*Pull squash plants and spent purple hull pea plants and put them in the compost pile.

*Mow the tall grass between veggies in the garden.

*Till for new plantings.

*Plant according to the fall planting guide I just got from the county extension service - at least squash, turnips, potatoes, cabbage, brussels sprouts, broccoli, swiss chard, etc.

*Wash, snap, and can about 20 pounds of green beans.

*Pick up a load of free pears and start peeling for processing tomorrow.

Making pear preserves, pear relish, pear peel jelly, and maybe pear honey. I'll put some recipes in tomorrow while I'm procrastinating by blogging like today!!!! I gotta get going.
