Just finished canning my Pink Tip Greasy beans. Then I did four batches of potatoes pressure canned without water. Now I’m waiting for the dried beans I ordered to get them processed. Then it’ll be time to bring the firewood to the house. Fall is in the air!

Fall is in the air for sure!

I spent that last few days under a mountain of green beans and tomatoes. Potatoes being pulled soon, but we just leave those covered with dirt and stored in the walk in refrigerator in an out building.

Five little piggies that aren’t so little are going to butcher soon, so freezers full again.

You’re going to have to back up a minute and educate me.

How do you can potatoes without water?

What are Pink Tip Greasy beans? a green bean?

stayed up late and did 36 quarts of tomatoes the other night, with only that didn't seal....going to be making some grape juice perhaps tomorrow , do more picking in the garden, and then there's the matter of some pears that might be ready to can, which I've never done...

I have a pressure canner, which I rarely use...mostly doing waterbath...

anyone have any experience with those new digital pressure canners?
