Out with the old, in with the new. I agree with the *other* garden girl about dehydrating. A dehydrator is a great investment, if for dried tomatoes alone! <br /><br />If you get a freezer, go with a chest model...much more energy efficient!Milkweedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08358496166576984299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8530519200657974866.post-44511398554258632742009-08-18T11:04:49.175-04:002009-08-18T11:04:49.175-04:00To Garden Girl II- thanks for the tip on the dehyd...To Garden Girl II- thanks for the tip on the dehydrator, I've been thinking about that for our figs too, though something- I think a possum- keeps getting them during the night, need to be diligent about picking at dusk I guess.<br /><br />To Heather- Yes, the discussion about a bigger freezer has been coming up frequently, it seems like so much food now but it won't come February!<br /><Maria Hitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14216078989307390367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8530519200657974866.post-17994219976840307702009-08-18T08:50:26.213-04:002009-08-18T08:50:26.213-04:00The harvest is awesome!

Now that one is dangerously full and I am wondering what to do as I also can and that is getting overloaded too. One can never have enough of their own harvest. Good luck. i agree with the dehydrator, mine's been going for weeks now.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10737367324901967724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8530519200657974866.post-73887269845738765592009-08-18T07:42:17.658-04:002009-08-18T07:42:17.658-04:00Hi Garden Girl, I came across your blog at Lynn...Hi Garden Girl, I came across your blog at Lynn's garden, and noticed we share a common name.<br /><br />Looks like a fabulous harvest! I'm still waiting for ripe tomatoes. They got a very slow start in our unusually cool summer. <br /><br />It might be worthwhile investing in a food dehydrator for your surplus tomatoes. I'm considering one. My mom uses a dehydrator for her garden girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13284047851881823280noreply@blogger.com
