Moose, potato, carrot stew
 |
| So, the freezer was full of moose and the garage was full of carrots and potatoes from the garden harvest..... |
 |
| And we canned up some moose stew! 7 quart jars and 14 pint jars, praise God for His provision. |
Remple carrots
 |
| We had many harvest opportunities this summer and fall here in Alaska. |
 |
| One such harvest came this fall when the organic farmers that the boys worked for invited families into their fields to glean. |
 |
| We picked carrots for our family and plenty to share with friends as well. |
 |
| Next we took them over to a friends house and we all washed the carrots to prepare them for winter storage. |
 |
| Next comes the carrot souffle, carrot cakes, carrot soup, and so forth! YUM |
Moose processing
 |
| Lonnie and Alex both drew moose cow tags this year :) Lonnie was able to harvest his moose. |
 |
| Now the work begins. Thank the Lord for good friends to help. |
 |
| Here I am getting some instruction on how to cut put our moose (Lonnie had to be away during this part) |
 |
| 8 hours of cutting and grinding total...and after sharing a quarter with the land owner and another quarter with our friends in return for all their help...we still put almost 250 lbs in our freezer. Wow! |
