THIS
IS A HOMESTEADING IMAGE
THE PHOTO OF THIS OLD BARN COMES FROM GRORGETOWN, COLORADO
The image of this barn comes from the KNEISEL-ANDERSON HOME. They are dear friends of
Jerrie's family.
Jerrie's family had the BUCKLEY BROTHERS GROCERY STORE in Silver Plume, Colorado
and the Kneisel-Andersons grocery store is still in Georgetown, Coloado. If you visit the Kneise-Anderson store you will
see the old-fashioned decorations that is an art in today's world.
John and Jerrie like all the old-fashioned
skills and that is why we have put them on our website so we could connect with the past.
KEEPING THE HARVEST
BY NANCY
CHIOFFI AND GRETCHEN MEAD
PRESERVING YOUR FRUITS, VEGETABLES & HERBS
CANNING, JAMS & JELLIES, FREEZING, PICKLING, DRYING, CURING, COLD STORAGE
This
book, KEEPING THE HARVEST, is one of my favorites. The recipes and tips is the information I always need at the right time.
Some subjects that are of interest that I found out by using this preserving book is: Parsnip seeds can only
be used for the first season. Many recipes for ketchup, and chili sauce are easy to make. The list of charts are all the ones
you will need. Examples are: Altitude chart for boiling water bath and canning tomatoes (raw pack with a boiling water canner)
and much more.
Some other sections of interest are: there is a very excellent section on root cellars with
pictures of ways to store in a keg or a storage bin that is a 2-foot deep storage bin that is built in the ground.
There is a excellent chart on the best methods to preserve your food. When you first start homesteading it takes time to
learn the different ways you can preserve safely. Even after many years of preserving every season it is good to have this
chart. One interesting idea is what you can do with tomatoes. We always say we have to have tomatoes as there is so many dishes
that you can use them. This chart gives you 3 ways to preserve tomatoes, can for tomato juice, puree and can whole.
KEEPING THE HARVEST is one of the greatest preserving books that we highly recommend.
