A pumpkin, from a botanist‘s perspective, is a fruit because it’s a product of the seed-bearing structure of flowering plants. A pumpkin, from a culinary perspective, is categorized as a vegetable because pumpkins are less sweet and more savory. No matter what side you are on, tis the #season for pumpkins and we have the best ones in around! #chelseamich #shoplocal #autumn #seasonal #fruit #veg Source: fruitsandveggies.org

Can All You Can - Start with the freshest ingredients from the #farmersmarket! 🍅🥕🍆🌽 Canning is a method of using heat and airtight containers to preserve food as nearly as possible in the condition in which it is served when freshly cooked. It is a desirable and economical method of preserving many foods so that their use can be distributed over seasons and to places where they are not available fresh. In comparison to drying, curing, pickling, salting, cold storage, and freezing, canning is a relatively new method of food preservation. 💡This process was developed by Nicolas Appert of France during the Napoleonic Wars. In 1795, Napoleon’s government offered an award of 12,000 francs for the invention of a food preservation method suitable for sustaining large quantities of French troops both on land and at sea. Appert won the award in 1809. Home canning in the United States made a pronounced appearance during World War I, maintained a steady following through the Great Depression, peaked during World War II, suffered a substantial decline after the war, and has been regaining popularity since the 1970’s. #chelseami #canning #fresh #local Source: www.nal.usda.gov
