The Harvest PatchFarm Fresh : Family Grown : Community Suported Agriculture

and the green beans of the season have arrived in full force…many many bushels picked already….

Here are so tips for freezing up these guys to enjoy all winter long…

    first you must pick enough to big up…. I did a half bushel here

                                                                                                   Then just pop off the top and bottom of each bean…

Next add them to a boiling pot of water… only leave in the boiling water for three minutes… remove them and then toss them into a bowl filled with cold ice water to stop them from cooking…… drain them… and put them in freezer bags…

       I use a food sealer to suck all the air out and then seal the bag…

         Toss your final product into the freezer… they will keep all year until fresh  

         beans are ready next year..
