Greetings,

I’m sitting here listening to the lovely sound of rain! We haven’t had a good rain in a very long time and we really need it. Had a very busy week last week, a combination of tax prep, real estate, gardening, and preserving. 


My harvest last week was pretty good, and I decided to give fermenting a try. I do like to can, but I really didn’t have enough to feel like I should go through the energy and expense of canning. I have been watching a lot of videos on fermenting. Fermented foods are very good to keep a healthy gut.  I am a solid kombucha drinker already, so I thought I would add this too!




 

I’ve also started my cole crops for my winter garden. This year I’ve started broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussel sprouts and bok choy.  I’ve ordered my garlic from a place in Idaho, and my onion sets should be here soon.  I’ll be putting in root crops too, another must have!


 


 

 

Just a reminder this is a good time to start your Fire Cider. It takes a few weeks to infuse and cold and flu season is right around the corner. Here is the link, in case you’ve never made it.

  I do think it helps with congestion and sore throats. It doesn’t taste great, but enough honey helps it go down.

 

Guess I better go label some soaps, they aren’t going to label themselves! 

 

Bye for now,

Tammie

 

 

 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

 

I will post my fermentation experiment in a few days and let you know how it went.
