Week #8! It has been busy this week...Patsy Howell and I canned tomatoes and white half runners on Monday. I froze okra and cooked down Apples for sauce and butter on Tuesday. Wednesday was travel day for sourcing out new growers in the area. Not to mention, we cut okra on Monday and Wednesday......

I was able to locate mainly Parker tomatoes near Calhoun yesterday...as well as located a new grower for silver queen corn and white half runners....not to mention okra which these days everybody has plenty....where were these folks a few weeks back?

These new sources have been added to our primary grower, Mr. Brooke, directly here in Sutallee. Mr. Brooke has been a wealth of goodies including okra, straightneck squash, crooked neck squash, zucchini and pickling cucumbers...not to mention all the history on Sutallee dating back to its 1920's and/or 1930's and shine running days.

Below you will find a quick link to a website I visit often, Fruits & Veggies More Matters. It is a good resource for information regarding the fruits and veggies you purchase, as well as good recipes and more.
