This year I planted more than 288 tomatoes. Of that number, there are 50 new varieties and 20 of our old standbys that we are selling seeds from this year at our business &#8212; Seed Treasures. Some of the 50 new ones won&#8217;t make the cut, of course. If they don&#8217;t produce very well, don&#8217;t taste great, or don&#8217;t seem quite hardy, out they go! (We do give some a second chance if they make two of our goals, just to see if we did something wrong or the weather affected them.)<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, I&#8217;ve been canning up a storm. I just did 14 quarts of chili, 7 pints of leftover kidney beans, 3 quarts and 3 pints of boneless pork loin, and a little plain crumbled hamburger. Now I&#8217;ve got to get out more meat to thaw. Time to get another big batch done ahead of Easter dinner cooking and baking. I&#8217;m SO glad to be feeling better!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.backwoodshome.com\/blogs\/JackieClay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Will-dancing.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4672\" src=\"https:\/\/www.backwoodshome.com\/blogs\/JackieClay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Will-dancing.jpg\" alt=\"Will-dancing\" width=\"446\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.backwoodshome.com\/blogs\/JackieClay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Will-dancing.jpg 446w, https:\/\/www.backwoodshome.com\/blogs\/JackieClay\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Will-dancing-300x269.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 446px) 100vw, 446px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nWill is lots better too.
