Last month my brother-in-law and his wife moved into a house that had a backyard filled with mature fruit trees, rampant tomato plants, and an herb garden. With more figs and tomatoes than we knew what to do with, I decided it would be a great chance to try canning for the first time. Actual canning success is debatable (I think it sealed? @_@) but the fruit preserves themselves were pretty tasty I think!
