Farm Fresh Friday #15

Welcome to Farm Fresh Friday!

Oh, my goodness

I have fresh veggies

coming out of my ears...

yes, I said ears!!

Sweet corn season is upon us!!

We've been competing

with a lone raccoon

in our own garden!

He sneaks in during

 the night

for a snack...

nibbling on a few dozen 

 of the most

perfect ears of corn

in the garden!!

Thank goodness

we know where there is 

a bigger patch of sweet corn...

we raided our friends

sweet corn field on Saturday...

they planted a few dozen

ACRES of it!!

We came home with a nice load of it 

and got it all put up in the freezer!

Frozen sweet corn

tastes just like fresh off the cob

in the middle of winter!!

(and the raccoons haven't

figured out how to raid 

the freezer yet!)

Lately, we've been enjoying 

sweet corn and fresh red ripe tomatoes

at every meal!!

The tomatoes are piling up on me now,

ripening faster than we can eat...

tomorrow I'll be doing 

a batch of SAllsa!!

We have fresh peppers,

garlic, onions...

everything but the cilantro!!

(my cilantro is always done 

and gone to seed by salsa time!)

Honestly,

all of these great veggies

ready all at the same time...

I feel like I'm 

on an old episode of

"Beat the Clock"

We have such a short growing 

season here in the Dakotas!

When it's harvest time,

you better be on your toes

and ready to go, go, go...

The clock's been ticking here-

and I've been canning every 

chance I get!!

Not preserving all of this good fresh stuff

would just be sinful!!

Garden Fresh...

you just can't beat it!!

This is a place to share all things FRESH,

 homemade and/or home-grown.

There is no rule that it has to be made by you or grown by you,

just the fact that it was 

hand made or grown by somebody
