My produce is about gone. I do have some peppers that I just put in
the freezer and others that are going to be smoked this afternoon.
Then they will be dehydrated. There is some juice waiting to be made
into jelly.

Then I need to clean up the garden and greenhouse for next year. Then
comes the Christmas baking.

After that I will sit back and wait for the seed catalogues.

What are you preserving now?

well I was just given about 50lbs of Meyer lemons today. so something with
Meyer lemons, I smoked some poblano peppers and cleaned up those out of the
garden.

okra is still coming off, so I may put up a jar or two of pickled.

other than those items it is waning.

We're still here, just not much canning going on in some parts of the
country and in others they're too busy to visit. Just ignore the crazies
and they go away after awhile

Hello back.
Are you looking for someone in particular?

A couple of the regulars here live in a northern climate where the
harvest is pretty much done. (I'm one of them.) I could be making
apple butter if I felt like it; instead, I'm freezing soup broth but I
don't really consider that to be preserving in a more typical sense*‹ I
consider it to be storage. :-)

A couple of the southren regulars are occupied with family stuff. The
rest of 'em have lives. "-)

How can we help you? If you've a canning question, you'll likely find
that a couple folks are MULT-EYE talented and can help you most anything.

Hey! Y'all shouldn't make fun of SPAM, lots of Brits wouldn't have had
any meat at all during WWII if we hadn't shipped lots of it over there.
Come to think of it, my family ate a lot of SPAM in those days too. I've
got a can in the pantry now, just in case we can't cook or another
hurricane blows in. With that and canned tuna and vegetarian beans we
can feast like kings.

Don't forget the Hawaiians. They developed a taste for it during WWII
and now can't get enough of the stuff. SPAM sushi, anyone?

SPAM was somewhat of a staple at our house in my younger days, and I can
only take it in extreme moderation anymore :-)......Lots of memories of
canned meat at hunting camp as well and even though I could do without SPAM,
I still love both Potted Meat and Vienna Sausage!

We are still here but as someone said, much of the US has had frost
and canning is over. My garden here in So. California is almost gone
but I still pick the odd tomato, a few green beans, beets, and chard.
Getting ready to plant cabbage for sauerkraut. Planting beets also to
can. Will ramp up canning for Christmas giving soon when cranberries
more available. I also hunt the forum for recipes and have a big file
of them. I also enjoy related articles having to do with canners,
jars, lids, clear jel, etc. What a "geek" huh? Jim in California

I was kind of wondering that my self. Today I canned 10 quarts of
sweet and spicy beans with bourbon using the rest of my Thanksgiving
ham bone. I also water boiled a sweet sour relish with the rest of my
garden peppers (actually peppers, green apples an cabbage). In the
garden, the cabbage plants are growing and the beets are pushing their
tender shoots up through the ground. Kraut and pickled beets are being
created in my winter garden. You all have a nice Christmas. Regards -

Those of us who live in cooler climates do not have much of anything
left to can. I do have some tomatoes in a box in the dining room, but
they are mostly for eating.

I imagine that most of us are getting ready for the holidays and that
involves more baking and decorating than canning.
