The seed catalogs are here again-- Yeah! Love to read them and pick new thing-- or rather new old things.  We prefer the old heritage seeds, and save our own to plant.
  Have plenty of green beans, and potatoes and onions left, enough corn, but need to add more cabbage next year.
  Have lots of dry beans too-- think we'll have enough till next crop.
  Dehydration is a good tool to-- dried foods save space and don't need  electricity to keep-- good along with canning.
  And we know that all is organic-because that's how we raise them!
  Along with lamb and chickens and eggs( dogs killed all the hens-- so new chicks in the spring and new fencing)
  Anyone else doing this?-- sure hope so. With all the food contamination scares and re-calls--no problem here!
