Hello Gardeners,

Preserving food: Garden harvests can be a overwhelming at this time in the season. If you’re looking for ways to preserve your extra produce, there are a lot of great options. The National Center for Home Food Preservation has guides for canning, freezing, drying, fermenting, and more: https://nchfp.uga.edu/#gsc.tab=0

Or you can also put your extra produce on the share shelf for other gardeners!
