Home canned tomatoes
April 06, 2010
When I was a child, there was always one day, near the end of August,
when we would drive to my uncle’s farm to pick tomatoes for home
canning. This was before mechanical harvesting, and there would always
be tomatoes left in the field after the last picking for the local tomato
canning cooperative that my grandfather belonged to since the 1940s.
Just sounds like the a wonderful beginning of the most romantic movie. I can almost smell those tomatoes…red, sweet, juicy…and a family event. The best to create a healthy basement! I’d love to read the full story, though..
