How awful to have your freezer go out while you are so busy harvesting. I’m glad to hear it’s something you can probably fix. Also glad you were able to process/find alternate storage for most of the stuff. It’s a good thing you discovered it early.

LOL, yeah, when you least expect it... Part that went out (thermostat - $94.50 plus shipping) is out of stock and they don’t expect them for 3-4 weeks with no guarantee. I know, I could use another generic type and jury-rig it.
Now I have to decide - 15+ year old compressor, thermal overload and capacitor - maybe I will do some checking of new ones - good thing I wasn’t really depending on it as the only storage method... The equipment cost has only been $23 per year - maybe I’ll just spring for a new one when I get caught up a bit on the canning and drying.
Amazing how much the prices have gone up in 15 years...
