Homemade Strawberry Jam


My wife and kids worked hard on creating this years strawberry jam today...

Sunday our whole family spent time in the afternoon picking fresh strawberries from a farm in Nancy, KY - Wilson's. What a grand time we had as the owner showed our kids how to pick a ripe strawberry, then let us loose to pick (and eat!)

So today, was jam day.

After a couple trips to the store for sugar, sure-gel, etc., we have two dozen fresh jars of jam, and we enjoyed some angel food cake with freshly crushed strawberry and whipped cream topping...

Shall I go on?? Delicious!

And far better, wonderful family memories!

  1. We are doing the same! We bought a lot of strawberries, but have not made it into jelly yet! So we have been keeping them in our freezer until we make it! Have fun eating it all up!

    1. Awesome! Love homemade jam! I don't think I could go back to store-bought jelly now... and, we have been enjoying the leftover strawberries!
