Apples are included in this Saturday Oct 3rd, up to 70lb haul!

With the holiday season quickly approaching, we thought we'd share an easy way to preserve those apples for use in cobbler, pies, turnovers and more.

For every 4 cups of sliced apples
Wash, peel and core firm apples.
Slice about ¼-inch thick.
Dissolve ½ teaspoon vitamin C powder, 1,500 mg ascorbic acid, in 3 tablespoons cold water.
Sprinkle over the apples and toss well. This prevents browning.
For pie or cobbler, mix in ½ cup sugar. You can omit the sugar if you want flexibility later.
Put 4 to 6 cups in each freezer bag, depending on your recipe.
Press out the air, flatten the bag, label it and freeze.
This is the tested National Center for Home Food Preservation method.

See you in Green Valley, Arizona from 6am-8am Saturday Oct 3rd at 300 W Esperanza (United Methodist Church of Green Valley

All varieties are first come first serve but if you reserve a box we'll pack it when we get there and have it waiting for you with all of the varieties https://borderlandsproducerescue.org/duta-donation-saturday/

Need your produce delivered? 25lbs of select variety can be delivered to your door through our partnership with DoorDash

A great way to use your Saturday haul

Carrot & Potato Broth based Soup

Ingredients:
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon dill
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 cup carrots, cut into quarter moons (approx 2 medium carrots)
1 cup celery, halved lengthwise and sliced (approx 2 large celery stalks)
5 cups waxy potatoes, diced (approx 3 small)
4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup water

In a large soup pot, add oil and heat over low/medium. Add onion and sprinkle with the salt. Cook for 6-8 minutes or until onion is translucent. (if the onions start to brown, turn down the heat)

Add parsley, dill, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute, stirring to coat onions.
Increase heat and add carrots and celery. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring once. Add potatoes, stirring to mix well and let cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the potatoes just start to brown.

Add broth and water. Bring to a boil, cover and lower heat. Simmer for 10-15 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender, not mushy!
Take off the heat, and serve with a loaf of crusty bread and salad, or loaded up with your favorite baked potato toppings.
