Default Brandywine tomatoes

This year I went for "Pruden's Purple" and "Pineapple" heirlooms....
Yummy. Pruden's is very Brandywine-like but a bit more regular
shaped. Pineapple is an largish yellow and red striped tomato.

That's in addition to the paste tomatoes that I put up and use for
canned spaghetti sauce.



I wonder where the term "put up" came from. Put up where? On the shelf? I
know it means canning, but it's an odd description.
