Summer work

I usually buy enough produce at the market to bring the wagon. After farmers market alot of us meet at this area to play.

Tomatillo salsa



I tried to grow onions for winter but this type you need to eat pretty fast. Yummy though
Bought and roasted alot of anaheim chilis







Pulling out the seeds. the chickens love them. sofia got a hot one and had to suck on a booboo bunny for some time (lots of tears) now she asks
"is that a hot one'?

Canned tomatos




Sofia herding Lolo, Lulu and Silke
260 $ for the grass fed beef we bought, poor cow




Zuchini for our muffins



Bell peppers were cheap at Farmers so we froze some for winter. Sofia gets right in there to help



Our dried tomatos







Nancy and Rob gave us their apples and we made apple sauce




Bette Goldfarb gave up a food dehydrator and I bought 20 # of tomato to dry.






We ended up with 4 mason jars and it took about 24 hours. This year Heather Brent gave me some seeds- Principe tomato -for drying. Last summer was a bad year for growing tomatos here in Los Osos because it was so foggy.
