Yesterday I cubed and froze 18 pounds of zucchini in 20 oz. foodsaver bags. Cyborg and I will enjoy some fabulous vegetable minestrone this winter.

As for canning, well let me just say, [cue ominous music] my tomatoes are coming, ready or not.

What ever you think you are going to need in the tomato line double it. You get nine or ten pints from 50 pounds of tomatoes, I can buy 10 22oz cans of Hunts sauce for $7.50 at Wally World, good as a Base for Pasta sauce.

I plan my garden for those things that I can't get in the off season, and I freeze them or can as appropriate.
