Summer in a Jar!

It was such a lovely morning that I decided to take my cocoa with a shot of coffee out with me to pick HUCKLEBERRIES.  I have a native edible landscape planting in front of my house.  All the plants were rescued from the back forty when a wind storm took out 9 large pine trees. I harvested far more than I expected so I joyfully came in and whipped up a lovely batch of huckleberry, strawberry, and rhubarb jam. I am trying a new type of pectin this year that allows me the option to use honey or sugar but also in a very limited quantity. Pomonas Universal Pectin… seems pricey at first but you can make up to 4 batches with one box.  Some future rainy cold winter day will be filled with summer once again. Hope I can wait that long to enjoy the fruits of my labor!
