You are going to have too many fresh veggies to eat. You can give some away (to the local food bank, friends and family), store them and can or pickle them.
Hopefully, you will have enough cucumbers to make dill pickles (love them). If we have a big harvest, a group of us will get together and pickle. If it’s a small harvest, I do it myself. Don’t wait to pickle. Do it as soon as possible after you’ve picked the cucumbers, beans (great for Bloody Ceasars), beets, jalapenos or whatever you want to pickle. Last year I pickled carrots with jalapeno peppers and they were delicious!
Store, pickle, can or freeze as much as possible. Come winter when vegetable prices go up, you will be thankful you have taken the extra time to store your produce.
