Time to celebrate the sweet new root veg forum.  Play the party music; turnip the beet.

But seriously, this forum is a great addition.

Interesting that they didn't consider Canada to be a close neighbour to Russia.  Seems like we are pretty close across the pole.

Not sure if it helps, but in Canada Bernardin sells a 750 ml wide mouth jar. https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/bernardin-glass-mason-jar-with-lid-and-band-wide-mouth-750-ml-12-count-clear/6000206475609?offerId=6000206475609®ion_id=201500&cmpid=SEM_CA_32613_SWQ2SLIHH8&utm_id=SEM_CA_32613_SWQ2SLIHH8&utm_medium=paid_search&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=always_on&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI1KaynfuQigMVJtTCBB1PQipJEAQYAyABEgLpY_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

Welcome Chris,

I also live on the Alaska highway in northern BC. There is cord wood house near Prophet river, that I have visited, that seems to work well.  There are a few things that should be done different, but over all its a success and works well in this environment.

Lots of good advice from everybody.

This is likely the single most helpful:

You're an inspiration. I should try this next time we have extra peppers.

.

All the uses listed above for sure.  Also use cheese cloth to hold herbs used in bath for medicinal purposes.

Killing is fine but optional. I don't mind having a few wasps around cause they eat the grass hoppers. The main priority is I want to eat the raspberries.

Hi folks.

Every year this is a problem, but this year it seems to be worse.  The wasps are eating my raspberries. Any suggestions on keeping the wasps at bay?  

I was thinking perhaps of planting mint nearby since rumour has it, the wasps don't like the smell. Anyone tried this?
