Fresh strawberry jam

[Austin]

Just finished 21 jars of fresh strawberry jam. Have plans to do some peach butter later this week and then may try my hand at some pickles in another week or so.

Nothing better than stocking the pantry with your own hard work.

Man, that sounds good. If you were closer, I would trade you a jar of blackberry jam. I recently started to learn how to can stuff a couple of years ago. It is rewarding to grow and can your own food.

So far this year I have canned some blackberry jam, tomatos, green beans, potatoes, pickles and pickled okra.
