putting food by

This year I’ve got a serious plan to put away food ~ a lot of food, as much seasonal produce as I can!  So, with bags still unpacked from our vacation, the children and I headed out to a friend’s strawberry patch to pick…and pick and pick.  In reality there is still quite a bit of jam from last year and we didn’t take home that much.  These berries will be used for smoothies and pies I think.  I’m hoping to do asparagus and broccoli soon.  Yum.

A great online resource for freezing and canning just about anything is Pick Your Own (with lots of pictures for the visual learner!)  How about you—putting any food by?
