Well it definitely depends on how much we can grow and what we can get at a decent price, but hopefully I'll be canning:

Tomato sauce
Crushed tomatoes
Blackberry jam
Peach jam
Apple butter
Strawberry jam
Dill pickles
Chunk pickles
Dilly beans
Sauerkraut
Applesauce
Peaches
Pears
Venison

That's about all I can think of at the moment. The list looks huge to me, but it's basically what we did last year, so I suppose it's doable! I just won't think about all that has to be frozen too.

This season the only thing out yet is strawberrys. So I have 6 pints of preserves, 2 quarts of dried, and have about another 6 pints worth left to go on preserves. We are doing peas and cherries next week. Later in the season I'll do blue/black/and raspberries. Also peppers, pickles, tomatoes-sauce, stewed, salsa. Green beans, squash (dried), peaches, apples plum and pears. And corn- but I may freeze that. Oh yea- and pumpkin.
