How to Can Green Beans

This morning I picked about 5lbs of beans from the garden.

And then I proceeded to can them.

Just look at those cute little jars all snuggled next to each other waiting to be boiled.

Today’s count: 13 pints of green beans for a total of 24 pints. I still need 28 more pints of beans if I’m going to reach my goal of 52 pints (one pint a week for a year).

I’m still in awe that there are really people out there who can/grow/eat all their own food.
