Fall Jam Making
This past weekend I went to Tacoma to visit my Grammi, and in the evenings my mom & I made us of our free time by cooking up many batches of tasty jam! I went to Hood River with my friend, Michelle, a week ago and we bought some apples & peaches that I needed to process. On Saturday afternoon my mom and I went blackberry picking - so we canned that fruit up as well. All in all we ended up with blackberry jam, peach jam, cardamom peach jam, allspice peach jam and apple sauce. Yummy!

Oh, it looks so yummy, and just think, I paid $8.00 for a jar of jam at Audrey's store today...
ReplyDeleteWell...the fruit is not cheap! I think it cost me $22 for the flat of peaches, plus $6 for pectin, plus $10ish for jars....so figure about $40 for a batch of jam, plus labor. I guess you're still coming out at $3-$4 per jar.
