Making Apple Cider, Relish, & foraging from my Van | Vanlife Homesteading

This was my favorite time in Autumn, the leaves had just started changing colour, but the incessant rain hadn't yet set in.  The evenings are still just long enough to feel relaxing and light up the trees so beautifully.

Harvest!  This was my first year with my own garden, homesteading just a wee bit!  I grew SOOOOO many tomatoes that it was too many to eat, so relish it was.  I made ripe tomato relish, green tomato relish, pear chutney and pear relish!  Where I live in the gulf islands there's also SOOOO many apple orchards and trees everywhere. So fresh pressed apple juice was easy to come by - and who wouldn't make their own apple cider!!  
I've never made it before and was pretty stoked to try.  It'll either be delicious or we'll end up with cider vinegar which is great also, just much less exciting!

I found my first cauliflower mushrooms and more chanterelles which I love so much - a happy abundance this year.  Ooohhh this time of year is so amazing. That crazy rush to harvest and process everything and nature, vegetables and fruit in particular wait for no one!

I hope you enjoyed coming along on this adventure with me and my van! 
Vanlife doesn't have to stop you from making, creating and producing food and delicious delicious beverages - fingers crossed-  and you can do it off grid too!
