September has arrived and at it is beginning to feel a lot like fall which means it is time to pick our Honeycrisp apples as well as our...
mini pumpkins,
Alberta peaches and Bartlett pears.
Our new little peach tree had 7 peaches this year which we were very excited about. Since there were so few though we just decided to slice them up and eat them. Our old pear tree, on the other hand, was loaded and we are currently in the process of drying them. We do save some for baking and also to share. We have another pear tree that we planted last year. It also produced some nice big pears but only a half dozen or so which we will be picking soon.
The mini pumpkins are so cute and are ready and waiting for decorating or possibly for cooking. If I can't decided I will probably do both however not for a few more weeks! In the meantime, I am making pickles and will be back soon with more about my canning.
Have a wonderful day!
