We planted our garden and then got a late freeze while we were up camping. We were so bummed! Some of the plants were effected, and others seemed to do fine. We planted a lot of jalapenos, because we wanted to pickle them. I thought for sure we had lost about 1/3 of the plants. Slowly they started coming back to life, and then they all got so heavy with jalapenos, they started tipping over! We made a haul! We got so many! We used all the stuff from our garden to bottle 21 jars of pickled jalapenos with carrots and onions. THEY ARE SO GOOD! We also had a gazillion cucumbers get huge all at once, so we made 5 jars of yummy relish. We had lots of fun with our garden this year!
This is just from 1 day of harvesting! |
Our onions and carrots did really good! |
Holy jalapenos! That's a ton! We still have a lot growing on the plants too! |
It took me forever to cut them all up! |
I did the growing, picking, cleaning, and cutting, and then Mark works his magic and bottles them. He makes them look so pretty too! |
The first batch. |
21 jars later! We ran out of carrots for the last batch. |
Our yummy relish from our cucumbers. We were feeling pretty proud and domestic. |
