Hello Dear Kathy, thanks for the thread and for all you do. I’m still dehydrating the odd tomato here and there, pulling the occasional bean pod as well as canning and drying peppers (for chilli powder). I’ve canned lots of pears and made several batches of pear butter (both sugar free and high octane) but there’s manny gallons in the fridge to go, about a dozen bussells in my kitchen and I haven’t finished harvesting my neighbor’s pear tree yet. There will be lots of canned pears, pear butter and pear chips this year for sure, but they are in demand and don’t gather dust! If I could figure a way to mass produce and market this stuff I’d have a new career. I have a for special sampler box already packed for you which will ship as soon as I make a fresh batch of Chilli powder.
You are a busy, busy boy....do you have a Farmer’s Market where you can sell?
