  • Soooooooo yummy! The daily question in my household now is can we make bread? And there is NOTHING like the smell of this baking! Green Pig Farm, this one is a winner!

  • Thank you so very much for this information. I am a small town neighborhood gardener in Womelsdorf. This is the first year I planted red and green lettuces and I did not know what to expect. I also planted Arugala, which I have since learned I do not care for. The taste is a bit peppery than I like. Will chickens eat this as well? I am friends with the Schaeffers of Grandview Dairy Farm and would gift this to their chickens.

  • Thanks for the interesting 🧐 information- I have had that happen to me at my old house. Sadly where I live now I am not able to have a very good garden the deer 🦌 groundhog, 🦊 raccoon 🦝 possum turkeys 🦃 like it too … I got tired of the fight

  • Hi, I’ve been do my sauerkraut this way for years, but my recipe calls for 2 tbs of vinegar per qt.
    I use a folded piece of cabbage leaf to hold under brine. My question, after is fermented can you remove the leaf and add brine, and then process in water bath with new lids. I use my clean old lids to ferment . Thank you ☺️

    • Yes, you can water bath can it! After a year of storing our kraut in the fridge, we decided to can the next batch. We know that canning it destroys the beneficial bacteria, but we only ever eat heated sauerkraut anyway.

      I find NCHFP is the best resource for canning… and they do have instructions for sauerkraut. We prefer hot packing to reduce siphoning.

      Keep us updated!

  • an inventory sheet total of everything canned and what you did freezing with what you used / to keep track of what is left in your inventory would be good also to have just a suggestion gonna try making kraut in a quart jar

  • Hi!
    What is turkey syrup? If it was left out of the recipe, would it really make a difference in taste or texture?

    Thank you!
