		<description><![CDATA[I swear I will never travel during harvest season again. I mean it. Really. I&#8217;m off to teach at the second annual Northeast Community Herbal Convergence next weekend. I&#8217;m leaving for parts north tomorrow, and this morning it suddenly dawned on me that there might be frost before I get back. (It&#8217;s hard to remember [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I asked a farmer for these lovely dried October beans, he was surprised. People buy them fresh for shelling, but not for drying. The same goes for limas and butterbeans. Have people forgotten about dried beans altogether? Someone said &#8220;they&#8217;re too much work.&#8221; Not really. Not if you&#8217;re the kind of person who likes [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I promised to talk about what to do with all that zucchini, didn&#8217;t I? Well, my favorite way to eat zucchini is grated and sauteed with lots of butter and garlic. But there&#8217;s only so much of that a person can eat. While I was thinking about interesting ways to preserve zucchini, I remembered an [...]]]></description>

We had a pleasant dry rosÃ© from the winery over the hill. Oh, and food. We had food. Simple pepper salad. Just sliced ripe peppers and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[First it was ten gallons of tomatoes to can, then six pecks of peppers to roast. These were &#8220;seconds&#8221; from a local farmerâ€”the slightly overripe or funny-shaped peppers he can&#8217;t sell to restaurants. At $6 a peck, they were absolutely worth it. But patient? No. These peppers were really, really ripe. And that means really, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I. Have. Been. Canning. I saw our neighbor at the farmers&#8217; market last week. She said &#8220;Hey, do you want any tomatoes? I have extra.&#8221; With my food-hoarding instincts, there&#8217;s no way I could pass that up. Ten gallons later&#8230;. Well, let&#8217;s just say it&#8217;s hot in the kitchen. If you haven&#8217;t tried canning, tomatoes [...]]]></description>

Toss them all in the blender with some salt. Blend. Eat. So good. This [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wine-making is one of my favorite ways to preserve the harvest. And elderberry wine is a classic. It&#8217;s so tastyâ€”a bit like sherry or port. I&#8217;ll tell you how I make it. But if you&#8217;ve never made wine before, I&#8217;d suggest a bit of reading before you start your own. My favorite book on fermentation [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are lots of reasons to eat local food. Health. Eat food that&#8217;s better for you. (In this study, spinach lost half its nutrients after a week of refrigeration. Think about that trip from California.) Safety. Ask your farmer how s/he does things, don&#8217;t leave it to the bureaucrats. Ethics. Prevent some of the death [...]]]></description>
