Pear wine is awesome! My Daddy has 5 gallons fermenting right now.

Its Pear time!!
Picked most of the pears last weekend. The tree is in bad shape. It split this year but I left it so the pears would ripen. Ended up with over 400 lbs of pears picked. Pears not big as last years crop.
Started canning today. 27 quarts almost done. Lot more waste from being bruised and some bug spots. Still better than a lot of chemicals.
Looks like I will be canning until at least Tuesday. Trying to see if I can get 100 quarts. Then Wednesday I might try a recipe for Pear jam and pear butter I found.
Hoping that they don't get over ripe. Surprised me that the bottom crates had already turned yellow when I was sorting them this evening. Well its cooler tonight so maybe that will slow them down some and give me an extra day or too.

You're going to be very busy! The reward will be very tasty all winter.
