The cycle of the year continues



Well, I have seeds sprouting in my seed area. Nothing too exciting, just some herbs, Basil, Catnip, Chamomile, Borage, Cilantro and White Sage. Why these you ask? 1. I had seeds for them in my seed bank, 2. It's a nice mix of culinary, medicinal and pollinator attractors. I won't start veggie seeds for another few weeks, but this marks the beginning of the spring seed starting for me, which caused my mind to turn to my food storage.
Every week now I'm washing and storing more and more empty jars. Here's the round up of what's still in storage for my family to eat on that I put away last fall.
1 Butternut squash
1 Acorn squash
5 Quarts Peaches
4 Pints Tom soup
2 jelly jars of Zucchini relish
3 Q Roasted Tom sauce
5 Q Tomatoes whole
8 P corn
4 Q Apple Sauce
2 Q carrots
2 Q green beans
3 jellies
5-6 cups of dried veggies
Dried herbs remaining include sage, lemon basil, lemon verbena, lavender, basil, kale and stevia.
