    Don’t Let the Harvest Go to Waste – September 2026 News

    September is one of my favourite times of year for local produce, but it’s also when my kitchen starts to look a little bit like a preservation project! From bags of berries in the freezer to jars of pickles and batches of sauerkraut, I’ve been busy finding ways to make the most of this year’s harvest.

    If you have more tomatoes, berries, apples or vegetables than you know what to do with, there are plenty of simple ways to preserve them for the months ahead. In this newsletter, I’m sharing some of my favourite ways to store the harvest, including freezing, canning, pickling, fermenting, drying and a few other easy options.

    You don’t need to preserve everything or become an expert at canning. Even a few simple projects can help reduce food waste and let you enjoy local seasonal produce long after summer is over.
