The August harvest is beginning! I am happy to be collecting cucumbers, peppers, raspberries and herbs from my garden. I have also been supplementing our garden harvest with beans, and salsa fixings from farmer's markets and road-side stands to fulfill my desire to line my pantry shelves with home canned goods. Along with my pickled beets I have recently made salsa, dilly beans and my first batch of garden dill pickles.
I love this season of harvest that accompanies our short summer season!
