A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Food Garden Forum Canning/Preserving Veggies

Hi, All! I'm looking for tips on canning/preserving/freezing different veggies this year.

I will be canning green beans, tomatoes and tomato sauce, green peas, and pickles. I am planning to freeze corn, squash, eggplant, and bell peppers. Blackeyed peas will be dried for future use, as will some of the green peas.

Are there other ways to preserve the items that I will be freezing? I have more space to store canned items than I do frozen items, so any tips would be appreciated!

There are rules for elevation and amount of heat for certain durations.

Many University's give this info out on the not - it is a very exacting science.

here is a database full of every veggie you can think of.
