Thankful Thursday::j for jam

2/12/2015

Today I am thankful for homemade jam...well, actually home canning which is something I enjoy doing each fall.  Many years ago we lived on an acreage with a massive garden and my husband's elderly uncle shared many tips with me.  Even though my city garden is much, much smaller I still enjoy canning to this day.  Without fail I like canning dill & bread + butter pickles, tomatoes, salsa, apple butter & juice, and of course, jam...made with blueberries, choke cherries, sand cherries, rhubarb and crabapples from our garden.

Veronica ... I noted your 'ps' ... when you say "cider" do you mean hard cider or juice? my son is interested in making hard cider and hadn't even thought of crabapples!

Hey Jen...I make the juice but don't know why you couldn't make hard cider out of it - I know my dad used to make crabapple wine.
