Today, Saturday, May 6, 2017, Emerald and I went picked 21lbs of strawberries on Akers of Strawberries in Milton. We have fun picking and chatting. We picked them so Emerald could teach me about (jarring) canning. I don’t think it should be called canning because we did not use a single can! (Just saying) We made 15 jars of strawberry jam and over 2 dozen chocolate covered strawberry 🍓 cookies.
Our day with a basket of strawberries!
Getting ready to be cleaned..
End result jam and cookies.
Bagged up for tomorrow’s batch.
WOW!!! I remember picking strawberries and having red hands at the end. Think you and Emerald had lots of fun and good conversation. An extra bonus. Recipe for low sugar strawberry jam and no artificial sweetners? Thanks!
The recipe is on the box of “Sure Jell” and it is sold near the canning supplies. Look for the low sugar package.
Thank you!
Thank you!
