Andrew

Hi, I’m Andrew. I grew up on a farm, so growing food has been part of my life for a long time. After Betty and I got married, we started growing and canning on our own land. More recently, when we bought our property, we put in 21 raised garden beds. We grew so much that we were able to can over 100 quart jars of produce. On this site, I write the kind of blog posts I wish I had when we were figuring it out.
