Episode description

Whether you're ready or not, there's nothing you can do to stop the coming harvest.  Now that we know you can't stop mother nature, what can be done to prepare?  I'm glad you asked my friend.  In today's episode, I explain some of my favorite methods of preservation, how I let my harvest influence my meal plans, and how to deal with the current lid shortage crises. Discover when to use canning, fermentation, pickling, and other preservation methods to maximize your harvest.  Trust me, this is the only guide you will need for harvest this season.
