Beets


Canned 7 quarts of beets up on the farm.



Most of the beets came from mom, but some - maybe 1/4 (at most)  came from our gardens here and the raised beds in SS.   Some were turning woody, so I think its time to harvest all of the beets (I assume that the woodiness comes from cold weather - although some of the woody ones were white beets which only come from the SS beds...).

I drove up to farm; arrived around 2:30-3ish

First thing I did was tighten up the hydraulic lines on the tractor.  We will see if that works tomorrow.

Then I picked and sorted tomatoes from all three patches - amounted to about 10 gallons - most have to ripen before they can be processed though.
