Pears All Of A Sudden
Even the dogs, who love pears, got tired of the loads that would fall each day. We fed many buckets full to the cows who never tire of sweet pears.
During the week of intense pear-ness, I was able to dehydrate about twenty quarts, made pear upside-down cakes and pear breads for the freezer. It is still an ongoing battle with the j-birds over what filberts are left on the trees. I have only gotten a couple of handfuls so far and used them when making the zucchini bread for the freezer. Doesn’t look like much of a crop this year.
But it is a good thing I got that drying and cooking done because the clock is ticking since the thunderstorm on the night of 9/17. Ten days since that gully washer should lead to Chanterelle mushrooms in the forest especially when we had another day with over an inch and a half of rain since the first thunderstorm. I am looking forward to some good hunting before things turn more winter-like around the farm.
