"Harvesting & Preserving Garden Crops🌱❄️ Made Easy
Harvested a beautiful batch of rainbow Swiss chard and purple mustard greens before the freeze, and now it’s time to preserve them!
🌈 Processing your crops ensures you can enjoy your garden’s bounty all year long.
🌿 Ways to Preserve Your Harvest:
1️⃣ Freezing: Chop your greens, blanch them for a few minutes, and store them in freezer-safe bags like I did. Great for soups, sautés, and smoothies!
2️⃣ Dehydrating: Perfect for herbs or greens. Dehydrated veggies can be rehydrated for recipes or ground into powders.
3️⃣ Canning: Preserve greens in jars as part of soups or stews for shelf-stable meals.
Preserving is an essential step for maximizing your harvest and reducing waste.

I usually just dry my herbs and this year I learned about canning! I was nervous but had to issues so I’ll do more of that going forward
