These summer garden vegetable canning recipes are the recipes from my canning this summer.
I canned almost everything I could think of from my garden this summer, trying many new recipes. I planted tomatoes, several varieties of peppers, cucumbers, zucchini and tomatillos.

I had amazing harvests everyday and canned almost all of it.
