 We froze 66 cups of corn. Gave corn to our children and neighbors.

The tomatoes are just starting to ripen. The is yellow Hilly Billy ones.
                    These are Russian Tomatoes,               

 These seeds came from  a  Salad Bar, They are great they don't crack like most cherry tomatoes .

These are Ox heart tomatoes. My favorite ones  to can.

The Elderberries really produced a lot this year . Froze 43 cups .

Now when the tomatoes and Lima Beans are done I can get back to sewing.
