I know a few people who freeze them too. My freezer is to full. I hope I get enough this year to can. It's so darn good. |

Hi there :)
I found this online concerning preserving Horseradish and plan on trying to freeze it in the Fall myself.

when you dig yours in the fall, i'd love to have a few starts. I can't find any up here. I am hoping to have a crop this year but we'l see. I wonder if its better to wait every other year to harvest? this is only my 4th year..first year i planted and waited till the next year to harvest and it was a good crop. then last year was only a pint worth... so this year i have no idea but i think i might let it wait one more season. i am going to try and find more information on it but i have not found too many people who grow it in a cold climate and write about it. i am also going to add some good manure to the plot and that should help. any other help wold be appreciated |

I haven't tried canning horseradish. I don't think it has a very long shelf life on its own...although I wonder about all of those things that you find on the grocery store shelves that contain horseradish and how it manages to keep.
I have a pretty fair amount of horseradish, if you still need some starts, let me know. It is super muddy here now though. According to the weatherman, we just got over a month's worth of rain in one week, with more on the way next week, so I might not be able to dig anything up right away.
