Preserving tomatillos

The tomatillo, a native of Mexico, looks like a green tomato but its flavor is closer to a tart, green apple. They can be preserved much like tomatoes and used to make salsa verde, the green sauce in many Mexican dishes.

My fig tree deserves its own csa. Harvested another 24 today. Now somewhere more than 200 harvested. Offered to delivery driver and was politely declined. So still holding at 5 households that have benefited from the bounty. Washed, dried, sliced, and now drying. #gardening #GrowAndShare
Shared another dozen+ figs with neighbor. That makes 5 households this season so far from one tree. I stopped counting figs after 100

If you're new to growing, here's a tip

Plant flowers

Plant them everywhere. Bring in the native bees. You too could have 1 plant with 4 zucchinis on it 👀 👀 👀 👀

Last bag of peaches picked up tonight & we got a bag of lemons in trade 🍋

That makes 1 peach tree feeding 7 families
