Though they taste absolutely horrible, they are a valuable thing to have for additional preservations. If you&#8217;ve ever chewed down celery leaves, we definitely wouldn&#8217;t blame you if you wanted to toss them into the compost pile! Compared to [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Well, we&#8217;ve had an absolutely gangbuster season for peppers this year. We love these seasons because at the end, we don&#8217;t have to make choices. We can just do everything we want! Often, hot sauce is at the bottom of our crafting list. It&#8217;s not that we don&#8217;t like it or enjoy it. Quite literally, [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Rain or shine, the show must go on! With a whole garden to harvest and preserve, even inches of rainfall aren&#8217;t going to stop us. But, it&#8217;s a good day to discuss a bit of preservation philosophy! You&#8217;ll notice here that we&#8217;re roasting a boat load of Shishito peppers. We started growing this pepper variety [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[OK, so it&#8217;s probably time for us to talk about the garden&#8217;s end game. With 10 days to our average first frost date, we need to be thinking about our strategy to harvest and preserve as much as we possibly can. It&#8217;s important to stay ahead of the harvest, especially if you have a considerable [&#8230;]]]></description>

Dehydration may not be everyone&#8217;s favorite preservation method, but it&#8217;s certainly valuable for a lot of different products! When we first got into dehydration, decades ago, it seemed like the ideal preservation method for almost everything. Shelf stable, few food safety concerns and all you had to do was [&#8230;]]]></description>

When it comes to preserving cherry tomatoes, the options for preservation tend to be a bit more limited than what you see with regular tomatoes.

Fortunately, we survived it just fine. The damage to our squash plants was fairly light, only taking out a few leaves across a handful of plants. The frost came [&#8230;]]]></description>

We do wish that we could reliably grow gobs of habanero peppers at our latitude, but this often pushes our seasonal limits just a bit too far. [&#8230;]]]></description>

To us, heat is mysteriously missing from the &#8220;spectrum of taste&#8221; and that&#8217;s odd to us, considering it adds an entirely different dimension to food. You won&#8217;t likely find the classic Cayenne pepper on &#8220;northern&#8221; growing lists. Possibly because this is where &#8220;serious heat&#8221; begins. [&#8230;]]]></description>

Well, there&#8217;s quite a few plants that just will not work for. But, there are ways! When it comes to our pepper plants, we can&#8217;t simply top them late in the season.

Snow peas are one of our favorite crops, both for fresh eating and preservation. Snow peas a very consistent 60 to 70 day crop. Once they mature, it&#8217;s important to harvest them as soon as possible [&#8230;]]]></description>
