We've been getting ours from a friend. I can't grow them because we have black walnut trees (please, someone, come get the walnuts! I hate them!). The last year I had a garden that produced a bumper crop I froze them. I dipped them in boiling water to removed the skins, then cored and quartered them, put them in quart freezer bags, and stacked them flat in the freezer. Lots easier than canning, and I would just fish out a couple of bags for spaghetti or chili or whatever. They lasted well into the winter. I was told later that you don't have to remove the skins but I prefer not to have those in my sauces.
