 This month's notes: November 2009: Apples are ripe. Learn about each apple variety here. Pumpkins and winter squash are in. (be sure to see our easy pumpkin pie-from a fresh pumpkin recipe!  Fall raspberries are still available in some places, and many vegetables are still in full swing! Organic farms are identified in green!  (Fruit and vegetable festivals are here). Make your own applesauce, apple butter, salsa, spaghetti sauce and save money on food bills and eat better. See easy canning instructions/recipes, canning equipment guide! Also make your own ice cream - see How to make ice cream and ice cream making equipment and manuals

Add / Suggest a Farm, Orchard or Farm Market to be Added to the Website!

There are always farms I just haven't heard about. I've tried to make the form as easy and brief as possible!  If you know of a farm, orchard or farm market that you think should be added to www.PickYourOwn.org (or the related websites), please tell me what you know about it here!  Click here to suggest a festival or event, instead of a farm.

If you want to comment or provide feedback about a farm that is ALREADY listed on the website, please use the Feedback form instead.

If you are the farm's owner, employee or you have very detailed information about the farm, DO NOT use this form - this is for visitors and customers.  Farmers, please use our detailed Add-My-Farm submission page (click here: Add My Farm).

 Otherwise, just tell me what you know about the farm here, and I'll try to find them! Anything you can tell me is helpful!

Home Canning Kits

This is the same type of  standard canner that my grandmother used to make everything from applesauce to jams and jellies to tomato and spaghetti sauce. This complete kit includes everything you need and lasts for years: the canner, jar rack, jar grabber tongs, lid lifting wand, a plastic funnel, labels, bubble freer, and the bible of canning, the Ball Blue Book. It's much cheaper than buying the items separately. You'll never need anything else except jars and lids (and the jars are reusable). To see more canners, of different styles, makes and prices, click here!
