    Laura Estes, Special to The Record|Updated Oct 25, 2021

    Gardens are put to rest for the winter, with root crops straw-covered to protect from frost, and old vines composted to amend the soil come spring. There are apples to sauce, tomatoes to stew or turn into salsa, squash to bake and other bits of produce to put up for the winter. Where to start?
