The okra and cherries are done and sealed in jars.
I ended up with 8 pints of okra and 2 pints of cherries. Aren’t they pretty? I could have put a bit more okra on the trays but that was all I had. Both are perfectly delicious and I’ll be hoping to do more of both. If I can find some nice, small pods of okra, I’ll freeze dry it whole. Otherwise, cut up is great for snacks, or for rehydrating and using.
I wish we had better sources for getting fresh vegetables here but . . it is what it is.
Next load will probably be garlic (raw and smoked) and rosemary.

If you are in Abilene on Tues, Thur, or Sat, go to farmers market. I bought both frying and small okra today”. It is located on North First and just off North Treadaway.
