The days have been full these past few weeks. There was a family gathering of Mom and her brothers families over Labor Day weekend. Eggplant and green beans from the garden have been canned. A batch of apples were dehydrated. I've started dehydrating pears and begun pear vinegar with the peelings and cores.
I recently found some new canister sets donated to a local thrift shop. Enter a diamond drill bit, a carbon filter, and voila... new compost crocks in my shop!
I've been wanting to ramp up my compost making for some time. There are two compost bins chock full, so I asked Joseph to create a compost sifter for my birthday, and he obliged. Now, which plants will get all that rich, organic bounty? Have a wonderful weekend, friends!

Hi Laurie! We have two pear trees that are loaded with pears. the hard old timey ones. Wes was just saying we should juice them. I am intrigued by your pear vinegar. Is it hard to do?
I have a stoneware canister that Pam made with a plastic tub sitting in it, that we use for our compost too.
If you need more pears, stop over!
I saw the link below. I'm going to give it a try!
Great, Jennie! It's easy peasy! The only thing it requires is patience :o)
Patience, hummm. Well I'll have to give a go, on both counts:)
