I bought the book for the interesting recipes that it had and how easy it looked to use. That and I am a sucker for recipe books! :)
When I got home I immediately looked up something to do with zucchini. I was hoping to find a relish recipe and low and behold, there it was!
So I mad it literally the next day! It was so tasty and delicious that I can not wait to harvest more garden goodies and do more canning!
Excellent book to sit and read on a cold winter's day when the power is out and you are wondering how to survive in this crazy world. Now that you are growing your own food, learn how to make it last! Good info on preserving for any experience level. Updated version, but there are still some jewels in there that make you wonder....like "I purchased each of these appliances as soon as they became available for home use...." and she was referring to dishwashers and blenders. Thought that was kinda funny.
I am a novice at canning and just did it the first time last weekend. This book has a ton of information about food preservation (other than canning) and was invaluable. It also has a lot of great recipes!! A must for beginners!
Let customers speak for us
from 9256 reviewsBulbs were dry, perfect to separate cloves. 1st time planting this variety. Very pleased so far.
Garlic arrived quickly. Nice healthy large cloves. Sprouted and came up in under 2 weeks. It's growing nicely and is about 6" tall right now
I love your seeds. Thank you so much for providing such a valuable resource during this horrible time with the food supply. Grow your own groceries!!!!...
I received the Shallots, they are very large and beautiful. I planted them and now we wait until they are ready for harvest, late spring or early summer.
A few cloves weren’t in good condition and I ended up with quite a few small cloves. I also ordered Shallots and I was disappointed that neither came with planting instructions. Even though I have planted them for many years, I couldn’t remember the correct spacing and depth for the garlic.
This Siberian is the best! Showed up in great shape, love this stuff!
Grow organic never let's us down! Russian Red garlic is fragrant and delicious!
Big garlic bulbs with large cloves arrived. I planted a couple of weeks ago and they are already starting to sprout!!!!
So happy with these! Planted within a day of package arrival and have a little bed of blooms five weeks later! Kept a hail/animal screen over them until recently because we have voracious bunnies. Will likely dig up corms over winter to make sure they don’t get frostbitten. Zone 5B.
I am very pleased with my purchase and am looking forward to harvest. The bulbs are of a good size and firmness. I have no doubts the coming harvest will be wonderful.
I received beautiful large garlic cloves. I'm very happy with them so far. They sprouted and came up in less than two weeks and are now 5" tall. Looking forward to harvest time next year
I accidentally planted a little early but I belive this will be a fantastic crop!!
Hoping this fabric will give me a break for a year or two from weeding!
Grow Organic continues to provide quality trees, plants, and flowers. They are the first people I look to when buying things for my garden.
Most of my garlic has sprouted and is growing vigorously . It has been dry so the sprouts emerged after watering . I look forward to the different taste and smells that these cloves will produce in late spring or early summer here in East Tennessee . Thanks for your quality products and service . Grow organic for life !
