Fresh frozen fruits and vegetables deliver tasty, healthy treats all year

By Olivia Rader Georgia Grown Chef
Out of all preservation methods, none is easier than freezing. Preserving fruits and vegetables at the peak of freshness without

compromising flavor is one of the hallmarks of the modern freezer's advantage, something that Georgia's farmers know well. As spring moves into summer, more and more fresh Georgia produce is becoming available to meet increasing consumer demand during the coronavirus pandemic, but shelf-stable and frozen food purchasing has outpaced fresh produce sales.
Preserving the fruits of our state's largest industry has never been more important as farmers struggle to find outlets for surpluses of fresh commodities that once went straight to now-shuttered institutions and restaurants.
Use these tips for freezing some of Georgia's most popular fruits and vegetables so you can successfully make use of your entire U-Pick or farmers market haul to create healthier, fresher meals for you and your family throughout the summer, all while showing your support for our farmers.
Here is an overview of how to construct the best freezing experience possible: 0 Degrees Fahrenheit Make sure your
freezer is set at the proper temperature to freeze your foods quickly and prevent

any harmful bacterial growth. A second freezer thermometer is important to measure the accuracy of the one built in. This also helps you monitor the efficacy of your freezer and catch malfunctions early before you lose all your hard work to involuntary defrosting. The importance of labeling Keep a roll of masking tape and a permanent marker close by and get into the habit of labeling and dating everything right before it goes into the freezer. This way, you always

know exactly what you have on hand. For me, labels also help to spark inspiration about what I am going to make instead of relying on visuals alone frozen food is not always appetizing to look at! Portion it Freeze in smaller, individual portions instead of in large bags. This helps to speed the defrosting process, keeping things fresh by only allowing what you need to come to temperature. Food that has been repeatedly thawed and refrozen runs a greater risk of becoming contaminated by lengthening the time and frequency that food may be in the "temperature danger zone" of 40-140 degrees Fahrenheit. Blanching Blanching is a technique where foods are briefly plunged into a large pot of boiling water and then transferred to an ice bath to immediately halt the cooking process. For some fruits and vegetables, blanching is required to set the texture, flavor and color for future cooking or baking. In the case of peaches and tomatoes, blanching also speeds the removal of tough outer skins. Preventing freezer burn While freezer burned food is not unsafe to eat, it can become unpleasant in texture and flavor. The longer the food is exposed to even a little bit of air at freezing temperatures,

The GDA Food Safety Division and UGA Extension service provided guidance in the creation of these 10 steps. Please note that these steps apply only to waterbath canning items like preserves, jams, and jellies. For more information on canning things like beans and pickles, please visit nchfp.uga.edu.

Infographic by Erin White/GDA

1. Wash canning jars, lids and bands
in hot soapy water. Rinse well.
2. Place jars in waterbath canner or
large pot with rack in the bottom and fill with enough water to cover the jars. Bring to a simmer (180F) and simmer for at least 10 minutes. Keep the jars in simmering water until ready to fill.
3. Remove hot jars one-at-a-time
with a jar lifter and fill with preserves to within 1/2 inch of the top of the rim.
4. Run a rubber spatula around the
inside of the jar to release any air bubbles.
5. Wipe the rim well with a clean,
dampened paper towel to ensure a good seal.
6. Place the lids and bands on the
jars. Tighten bands just until you feel resistance.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 6, 2020

FARMERS AND CONSUMERS MARKET BULLETIN 404-656-3722 agr.georgia.gov

These steps only apply to preserves, jams, and jellies- not beans, pickles, or other similar produce.

PAGE 9

7. Replace jars in canner or pot with
rack and bring to a roiling boil. Water should cover jars by at least 1 inch. Cover the pot and boil for the time specified by your recipe. When complete, shut off heat and remove the lid. Allow jars to rest in canner for 5 minutes to be acclimated to the outside temperature.
8. Remove with jar lifters, keeping
upright at all times. Let jars cool on a cutting board or towel with 2 inches of space between each jar for 12 to 24 hours.
9. Inspect lids for seals; there should
be no flex when center is pressed. Remove the bands and attempt to lift lids off with your fingertips. Properly sealed lids will remain attached. If a lid fails to seal within 24 hours, immediately refrigerate the product.
10. Label your Georgia Grown
preserves! Find printable labels at georgiagrown.com/canning

EPA qualifies hundreds of disinfectants

for use against SARS-CoV-2

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency now has nearly 400 products that have qualified to be effective against SARSCoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. This week the agency also published an overview of its actions and resources related to disinfection against the novel coronavirus.
"EPA is dedicated to its mission of protecting human health and we want all Americans to have access to effective and approved surface disinfectant products," said Alexandra Dapolito Dunn, assistant administrator of EPA's Office of Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention. "We also want everyone follow the directions on the product so that we can safely use registered disinfectants and provide critical protection to our families."
When using an EPA-registered surface disinfectant, always follow the product's directions and remember: Never apply the product to yourself or
others. Do not ingest disinfectant products. This includes never applying any product on List N (the agency's list of disinfectants to use against SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19) directly to food. Never mix products unless specified in the use directions. Certain combinations of chemicals will create highly toxic acids or gases.

Wash the surface with soap and water before applying disinfectant products if the label mentions pre-cleaning.
Follow the contact time listed for your product on List N. This is the amount of time the surface must remain visibly wet to ensure efficacy against the virus. It can sometimes be several minutes.
Wash your hands after using a disinfectant. This will minimize your exposure to the chemicals in the disinfectant and the pathogen you are trying to kill. EPA provides additional information
on disinfectant safety messages on its twitter feeds, @EPA and @ChemSafety. These channels will be updated with new materials throughout the COVID-19 crisis.
EPA is also continuing to add additional chemicals to its list of common inert ingredients. These actions are intended to help address supply chain issues for EPA-registered disinfectants and other pesticides. It allows manufacturers of already-registered EPA products to change the source of listed inert ingredients.
To learn more about disinfectant safety and find a link to List N, see this guide from the National Pesticide Information Center, about using disinfectants to control COVID-19: http://npic.orst.edu/ingred/ ptype/amicrob/covid19.html

Food Preservation
Continued From Page 1
safe storage. If not, the bacteria can grow to produce a deadly human toxin when consumed.
Signs of under processing and food safety concerns of spoilage can include cloudy, bubbling liquid and jars that pop open after initially sealing. These products should not be eaten. It's also important to know that jars of improperly canned vegetables and meats can contain the deadly botulism toxin without showing signs of spoilage.
See more tips on how to properly discard sealed jars, or detoxify jars that have opened here: http://www.uga.edu/nchfp/how/general/identify_handle_spoiled_canned_food. html.
TIPS FOR FREEZING FRESH FRUIT & VEGGIES Freezing is one of the easiest, most convenient and least time-consuming ways to preserve foods at home! Plus, it's a safe way to enjoy fresh produce all year long. Here are some tips to help you with your next batch of freezing: 1. Materials plastic freezer bags or containers, glass canning/freezing jars or freezer foil and coated paper will work best. 2. Preparing wash and sort; discard any that are underripe or of poor quality. Consider stemming, pitting, peeling or slicing fruit in the way you plan to eat it. Prepare small quantities, since the fruit will have a short shelf-life once thawed. Blanch vegetables to ensure high quality and shelf-life. 3. Fruit Packs most fruits have better texture and flavor if packed in sugar or syrup packs (which you can make yourself); however, these are not necessary to preserve if you prefer to use a dry or unsweetened pack. 4. Asorbic acid consider adding this to help prevent discoloration of fruits during the freezing process (esp. peaches, apples, pears and apricots). 5. Package most foods require "headspace" between the packed foods and

closure, to allow room for expansion as food freezes. Make sure the food is at room temperature (or colder) before going into the freezer. Don't overload your freezer, leave enough room for food to quickly get cold once in the freezer. Find recommendations here: www.homefoodpreservation.com. 6. Labeling be sure to label all foods with the name of the item, date you packed, and type of pack. Most fruits and veggies will remain high quality for 8-12 months. Longer storage may impact food quality (but should not impact food safety).
THE VIDALIA ONION With Georgia's state vegetable currently in season, now is the perfect time to understand how to preserve it for enjoying all year long. Here are the easiest ways to preserve onions for future use: 1. Drying wash the onions and peel away the outer "paper" layer(s). Cut the ends and slice the onion (1/8-1/4" slices). You can use an electric dehydrator (3-9 hours) or a conventional oven (6-18 hours). It is recommended you dry onions by themselves. Watch the onions toward the end of the drying to prevent scorching. 2. Freezing this is the easiest method! Dice and freeze in a dry pack or on a tray (no blanching recommended). Package them up (eliminate as much air as possible) and use within 2-4 months. They are best cooked in dishes (not used raw). 3. Canning canning requires pressure canning because it is a low-acid vegetable (boil water canning is NOT safe). Follow all pressure canning safety procedures, including packing and filling the jars, venting the canner before pressurizing, and cooling. For recipes, tips, additional instructions and other advice on preserving fruits and vegetables, please utilize the National Center for Home Food Preservation, https://nchfp. uga.edu/. Your County Extension Office is another great resource for tips, recipes and more. They may be able to connect you to local farmers for produce for home canning!

the more moisture evaporates on the surface of the food, creating a network of air pockets that will gradually change the food's molecular structure and texture. Laying foods flat in thicker freezer bags (flat packing is also good for stacking and organizing) and squeezing as much of the air out as possible is sufficient for shorter periods of time, but if you are planning on freezing and putting away produce throughout the summer for use into next year, it is worthwhile to invest in a quality vacuum sealer. The all-purpose sheet pan In commercial warehouses, produce is Individually Quick Frozen or IQF. This technology is why commercially frozen lima beans or strawberries do not come in large blocks of ice. You can simulate this process at home by rinsing or blanching fresh produce first, spreading it onto a sheet pan to freeze pieces individually or in portioned clumps, and then transferring it to your chosen container. Drain produce thoroughly first to minimize ice crystals, and line with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Leave space When water freezes it expands. Ice crystals will form inside and around the food, so packing to the brim of a container is not recommended if you do not want the seal or lid to burst. Leave about an inch of headspace in your containers, especially when packing soups, stews, purees, sauces and oth-

er liquid-based foods. This also applies to your entire freezer; try not to pack it too tightly, as this reduces air circulation, lengthens freezing times, forms more ice crystals and, therefore, more drastically alters texture and flavor. Have a plan for your frozen bounty Thoroughly evaluate how you might want to use your produce before you freeze it. Use a variety of processing techniques, and don't limit yourself to blanching and dicing. Ideally, you want to freeze the produce in a form suited to your usual meal rotation. Sauting, caramelizing and roasting are all useful to do beforehand to encourage browning first. It is not ideal to attempt to caramelize a soggy mass of defrosted sliced Vidalia onions. When using any heat-based preparation methods, make sure your produce has completely cooled to room temperature or colder before freezing to minimize temperature change in the rest of your freezer. Pre-puree fruit to use in place of ice cubes for frozen beverages. Saut a mix of bell pepper and onion or mirepoix (onion, celery and carrots) first before portioning and freezing for a convenient flavor base for soups, stews and sauces. Pre-spiralize summer squash, blanch, drain and freeze in individual portions. Make homemade pesto with any soft herb, slow cooked tomato sauce or even tomato paste to be frozen in ice cube trays; the options are endless.

Guest Column: Get to know the National Agricultural Statistics Service

By Anthony Prillaman
Southern Regional Director,
USDA NASS
Hello. My name is Anthony Prillaman and I'm the new Regional Director for the USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service Southern Regional Office. We serve Georgia, Alabama, Florida, South Carolina and Puerto Rico. Our regional office is located in Athens with satellite offices in Montgomery, Ala.; Maitland, Fla.; and Columbia, S.C. As the statistical agency for USDA, NASS is committed to providing timely, accurate and useful statistics so that farmers, agricultural businesses, policymakers and others in the agricultural community have the data they need to make informed decisions. I'm originally from Roanoke, Va., which is in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Growing up, my family raised a few head of cattle and had a fairly large garden. Each summer my brother and I also helped my uncle put up hay. I've been married to my wife Kelly for 19 years and we have two wonderful children.

I attended Virginia Tech and graduated with a degree in Agricultural Economics in 1996. Shortly after graduation, I began my career with NASS in Nashville, Tenn., before transferring to the NASS office in Columbus, Ohio, in 2002. Before arriving in Athens last fall, I worked in the NASS Headquarters unit located in Washington, D.C., for the last 12 years. During my time in D.C., I served as the national statistician for corn, peanuts and rice, and later served as the head of NASS's Field Crop Section, which is responsible for all estimates related to field crops.
Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to meet with numerous farmers, commodity groups, university researchers, policymakers and other USDA agencies to discuss how they use NASS data. I understand how critical it is that our data be as accurate as possible.
The primary source of information for NASS reports comes from those who know the most: farmers and ranchers, livestock producers, grain elevator operators and other agribusinesses. The information for NASS surveys is gathered by mail, telephone, face-to-face interviews, field observations, and online data collection. Your voluntary cooperation in providing data for our reports is vital. Therefore, I would ask that you please participate in our surveys whenever your farm or business is

selected. By responding you help USDA provide reliable, upto-date data that you and others can use in decisions that affect you, your operation and your industry.
I also want to assure you that the information you provide is protected by law and will only be used for statistical purposes. NASS only publishes aggregated data, never individual or farm-specific data. Your responses are kept confidential and only authorized persons working for NASS as employees or sworn agents can access individual reports and then only for approved official purposes. Any person who willfully discloses any identifiable information about you or your operation is subject to jail, fines or both. The information you report to NASS is not subject to Freedom of Information Act requests and NASS does not sell or share information from our mailing lists.
I am very excited to be here in Georgia and understand how important agriculture is to this great state. In my short time here, I've already had the pleasure of meeting some of you at various trade shows and conferences, and I look forward to meeting and working with others within the agricultural community. Our office is here to serve you. Please call us at 706.703.5400 or visit our website at www.nass.usda.gov/ga if you have any questions or concerns about NASS or are looking for specific agricultural data.

My Tractor Story: First came substance, then came style
By Lee Lancaster lee.lancaster@agr.georgia.gov
When the first John Deere tractors were built, their design was unrefined and similar in style to the first tractors invented in the previous century. In 1937, an engineer at John Deere named Elmer McCormick took a trip from Waterloo, Iowa, to New York City to meet with Henry Dreyfuss. McCormick wanted to update the look and comfort of the tractors his company was producing. Dreyfuss and Co. worked on two Deere models that were unveiled in 1938: the new Model A and the new Model B. Previous As and Bs that were produced from 1934 and 1935 through 1937 are called "unstyled." The redesigned tractors are called "Styled," or as Deere put it, "Tomorrow's Tractor Today." Unstyled A with planters, above. Styled A, below. If you're lucky, you can see (Lee Lancaster/GDA) both models of these tractors at shows around the state. Cleveland Carter from McTier, near Baxley, has both an Unstyled 1935 Model A and a Styled 1952 Model A that he takes to several shows and parades every year. The 1935 Model A is usually displayed with a John Deere Model 290 planter. The 1952 Model A is displayed with frame mounted planters, powered by a gear on the rear axle.

Georgie's Drive Thru Irwinville
Hello! I'm Georgie, the Georgia Grown mascot. I travel the state of Georgia promoting our No. 1 industry, agriculture! Everything has a beginning and an end. The War Between the States began in Charleston Harbor. But do you know where it ended? Many people think it ended at Appomattox Courthouse in Virginia, but I beg to differ. On April 2, 1865, the Union Army broke through the Confederate defensive line at nearby Petersburg, where the city had been under siege since the previous spring. When the line broke, Confederate General Robert E. Lee evacuated to the west, surrendering at Appomattox the following Sunday. The President of the Confederacy, Jefferson Davis, was notified of the collapsing defenses while attending church in Richmond. He caught the last train to leave Richmond, escaping to Danville, Va. After receiving news of Lee's surrender, he crossed into North Carolina and parted ways with his executive cabinet in Washington, Ga., on May 4. He soon caught up with his family near Dublin. Then he crossed the Ocmulgee River and camped where the Wilcox County Courthouse now stands. The next day, May 10, 1865, he was captured near Irwinville, where the War Between the States met its end.

Eat Georgia Grown all year long
A how-to guide for freezing all your favorite Georgia-grown produce

By Olivia Rader
Georgia Grown Chef
Below are some suggestions from the Georgia Grown Test Kitchen for freezing your favorite seasonal produce with minimal waste:
Summer squash Rinse, slice thick, blanch for 1 minute, chill in ice bath, freeze flat on sheet pan, transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Broccoli Rinse, cut heads into florets and dice stems, blanch for 1 minute, chill in ice bath, drain, freeze flat on sheet pan, transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Kale, Collard Greens Soak, changing water as needed to remove grit. Remove leaves from stems, rough chop, blanch for 30 seconds, chill in ice bath, squeeze out excess moisture, freeze flat on parchment-lined sheet pan in portioned clumps, transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Mustard Greens, Turnip Greens, Spinach Soak, changing water as needed to remove grit. Rough chop, blanch for 10 seconds, chill in ice bath, gently squeeze out excess moisture, freeze flat on parchment-lined sheet pan in portioned clumps, transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Tomatoes Core, score an X in the top and bottom, blanch for 30 seconds, peel in ice bath, gently squeeze to remove seeds and juice into separate container, roughly chop peeled tomatoes in food processor and freeze in labeled quart bags. Save skins, juice, seeds and cores to make homemade tomato sauce or paste. Combine all scraps in a pot and cook down until very soft, puree, strain, reduce until desired consistency is reached and freeze in labeled containers.

Sweet corn Blanch whole shucked corn for 3 minutes, transfer to ice bath, cut off kernels, freeze flat on sheet pan, transfer to labeled gallon bag. For roasted corn grill or broil whole corn while turning frequently until charred in spots and tender, cut off kernels, freeze flat on sheet pan, transfer to labeled gallon bag. Corn cobs can be scraped of corn "milk" for creamed corn, then used for stock or as material for your barbecue smoker.
Vidalia onions Slice or dice and caramelize or saut in olive oil or butter until translucent, spread onto sheet pan to cool quickly, transfer to labeled quart bags and freeze flat. When peeling onions, save tougher outer layers for stock.
Okra Rinse, trim woody stems so as not to expose seeds, blanch whole for 3-4 minutes, dice, dredge for frying if desired, freeze flat on a sheet pan, transfer to labeled gal-

lon bag. Hot peppers Rinse, dry, remove stem, coat with oil
and roast at high heat on grill or under broiler until skin has puckered and browned all over, cool and transfer to labeled quart bags and freeze flat for chili, salsa, or hot sauce.
Sweet peppers Can be frozen fresh or roasted. Blanching not recommended. Rinse, trim of stems, seeds and ribs, slice if freezing fresh or cut into quarters and lightly oil and roast at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, freeze flat on sheet pan, transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Fresh shelled beans Rinse, drain thoroughly, freeze flat on sheet pan. Transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Sugar snap or snow peas Rinse, trim, blanch for 1-2 minutes, transfer to ice bath, drain, freeze flat on sheet pan, transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Peaches Blanch in hot, not boiling water for 30 seconds, transfer to ice bath, slip off skins. Slice and freeze flat on sheet pan. Transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Strawberries Rinse, trim and slice, or freeze whole with tops for smoothies on sheet pan. Transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Blueberries Rinse, drain thoroughly, spread onto sheet pan and freeze flat. Transfer to labeled gallon bag.
Watermelon Remove pink flesh from white and green rind. Cut watermelon into cubes, remove seeds, freeze flat on sheet pan. Watermelon pickles made using a recipe by Chef Steven Satterfield are one of my family's favorite summer treats make sure to remove the tough peel from the rind first. These can be eaten as is or used in relishes, salads, and drinks.
