Another week has come and gone, and we are that much closer to our final frost date window. I know many of our readers are already harvesting fresh veg from their gardens. (Lucky!) 

I’m getting antsy about getting my garden going. My spring crops are coming along nicely, and I’m hoping for a good season.

With tariffs rolled out, I know the first place we’ll see their impact is in the produce section at the grocery store. I’m always amazed at how people pay little attention to where their food comes from. 

Even before my tomato seedlings go out in the garden, I’m getting my pressure canner ready and taking stock of my mason jars. I want to work this season to put a grocery store in my pantry.

Are you planning on preserving your harvest this year? What are some of your favorite ways to preserve your bounty? Will you be growing more or putting by a little extra?
