Dear Bonita,
I grew beets once. I think I harvested 20. Each about one inch in diameter. Enough for a serving for myself and a friend. I love beets. I bought them from the grocers from then on. Also just watched your video on Apple spice jelly. I grew an apple tree once. And a peach tree. Never did get any peaches. Apple tree did ok. I was very proud of the applesauce I made. Decided to try my hand at canning. Oh yes, sterilized the jars and lids. About a week after I stored them, I noticed the applesauce was foaming in the jars. I guess I didn’t do the process correctly. Cut the trees down. I did pretty good at raspberries and strawberries for awhile. Strawberries still ok. I go to a farm to pick raspberries and marionberries. Although I haven’t done that for a couple years. I did ok with zucchini once. This year was several little pear tomatoes and lemon cucumbers. Just thought I’d share. Take care. Marion in Oregon
