Preserving Food From the Garden

Preserving food from the garden is an old-fashioned and very useful skill that anyone can learn! Use extra fruits to make homemade fruit leather and pumpkin puree and add a new flavor to the dinner table choices with flavorful sweet and spicy pickles.

Sometimes it can feel like your garden produces food faster than you can eat it. With these easy and delicious recipes, you can preserve your fresh fruits and veggies for weeks and even months to come!
