This year has been all about expanding, building, and fixing little bits and bobs. I’ve slowly been creating my own secret garden and I’m getting SO excited as it inches towards completion!

Also, I’m curious. Which ‘tool house’ were you sorted into? I’m a @ryobitoolsusa kinda gal!

Let’s preserve some cherries! 🍒 🧊 Freezi

Let’s preserve some cherries! 🍒

🧊 Freezing: pit cherries and freeze on a lined sheet pan. Once frozen transfer to an airtight container.

💨 Dehydrating:

🍒 For fruit leather combine 2 cups of cherries and 1/4 cup of lime juice as well as the zest of the limes. With all the lime this is TART, so I’d suggest adding in the juice of one lime at a time and taste testing! Dehydrate in a dehydrator for 8 hours on the fruit setting (135°) or in an oven on your lowest setting for about 3 hours.

🍒 For whole cherries and pieces line up on dehydrator sheets and dehydrate for about 12 hours on the fruit setting. You’ll know they’re finished when they no longer squish when you touch them and pull away from the dehydrating sheet easily. In an oven this GREATLY varies depending on water content. Dehydrate on the oven’s lowest setting checking for the same signs as in a dehydrator.

🫙 Cherry Preserves. I make this as simple as can be so when I use it later I can add ingredients based on use! For every four cups of cherries add in 1/2 cup of sugar and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Bring to a boil and press cherries to break them up. Let simmer to reduce, about 30 minutes. These can be refrigerated for about 3 weeks or use the water bath canning method for a 10 minute processing time.

My garden is more important than ever this growing

My garden is more important than ever this growing season. 🌱 With those in charge voting to cut programs that feed millions of people, it is incredibly necessary to step up as communities to make sure that our fellow humans don’t go hungry.

I’ve cried, I’ve raged, I’ve felt numb- but what I always come back to is an overwhelming desire to help, to listen, and to speak up, loudly.

Behind the scenes I’ve always donated, volunteered, and been active in nonprofits, but I’ve felt weird speaking about ‘good deeds’ because I don’t want applause for doing what’s right. However, in this climate we need to shout how to help from the rooftops.

Something new for me this year is working with @freshfoodconnect , a nonprofit that connects gardeners to organizations that fill hungry mouths. There are lots of people who need help in your community, wherever you are.

I highly encourage you to join me in helping people stay fed- whether that’s through donating food or funds. And for those who need help, we’ve got you.
