Marion Grant and her husband, Charles Szakacs, are both avid gardeners. Szakacs grew a cabbage this season that weighed more than 18 pounds. His garden is on a quarter-acre of his family’s land near Caputa. Szakacs has taken to making sauerkraut with his abundance of cabbage.

Looks like a great year for corned beef and cabbage. It’ll bring out the Irish in you.

If you ever get the chance you must visit The Ohio Sauerkraut Festival!

I’m getting hungry just thinking about it and I just ate lunch!

Hearty Camping Breakfast: Fry thin sliced raw potatoes (skin on) until lightly browned. Add drained saurkraut and sliced sausages sir fry until cooked through. Add a couple of beaten eggs and stir fry to cook. Great for deer hunting in the Black Hills.

Pork, potatoes and sauerkraut. Mmmmmm. Those things are way too big for halupkas though. My mom would faint.

The apple crop in NYS is phenomenal this year.

It’s one of the best in a long time. The trees are just loaded.

All must bow down before Master Cabbagehead! Actually, he looks like something they'd use as a Bad Guy on an original 'Star Trek' episode, LOL!

Uh, oh! There goes all the heart failure patients and the ones on Coumadin!

(Although the worst part of fall is that last pear on the tree, that invariably ends up in at least one broken bone. Every year.

I suppose is some areas, it’s that last apple. Next, will come all the dizzy spells from picking up pecans.)
