Let the produce come forth!

Finally... our garden is starting to do something! It's been really slow to start because of our weird weather, but now we are getting zucchini and cucumbers. This week I harvested most of the onions and Len put them in the garage to dry out before we put them in mesh bags. I hope these last a while since we can't freeze them or can them! There is probably another 1/4 of these left in the garden yet. I've been grating zucchini and freezing it. Yesterday our neighbor was kind enough to let us come and harvest sweet corn. I shucked the cobs, blanched, cooled, cut the kernels and then put them in freezer bags from 8-4:30 yesterday. I keep reminding myself how much money we're saving on groceries. This is not my favorite time of year, but it is important to get us through the rest of the year.
