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 9231 reviewsThe cute packaging caught my eye first. I love you can open it up sprinkle in the seeds you need to use, and then close it up for another time. It is compact and cute. I am eager to harvest my greens.
One of my favorites to grow…always get a good yield out of this one and the flavor is just…YUM!
I received these in August and they have braved the heat of the past 2 months. I have continued to water them to ensure they live. One tree looks much better than the other, although I see buds ready for next year on both. I can't wait for spring to see blooms, leaves and branches to begin.
huge bulbs made up of huge cloves; perfect quality for planting - very firm and paper in tact.
My order was prompt and just what I expected.
I purchased Elephant and Music garlic bulbs to plant in my zone 7 garden. They arrived as firm, healthy bulbs.
Heads were big with many large cloves. I am anticipating a great outcome in early summer 🧄
Our chickens love this forage.I was a little concerned growing this in south Florida however it is flourishing. Our new go to, thanks Peaceful Valley!
What a deal - top quality and only $20.99. Happy Frog is a premium brand.
I prepped my raised beds with Happy Frog Potting Soil. I love that it contains earthworms castings. Premium product!
Firm bulbs, excellent quality. I eagerly await the saffron harvest next Spring.
Lovely large bulbs, wonderful quality!
I planted a row of red chesnok. The color is stunning, excellent quality.
I just planted two rows of CA late white. Garlic bulbs look beautiful - great quality. Can't wait for harvest and for braiding time!
I have been ordering shallots from Grow Organic for a couple of years now. I had some problems with the shallots, I have to say they have the best customer service. I am a Master Gardener and have ordered 100's of different veggies seeds for years at many different companies as I buy seeds for the Master Garden's and never have experience such great customer service. I believe anything you buy from them you will be happy
