The U-Pick fruit season has begun in Michigan. U-pick strawberries are first, and the cherries and blueberries follow. Peaches and apples are ready in August and continue into the fall. We picked a nice box of strawberries (u-pick is priced at $1.25 a pound) and canned one batch of strawberry jam. We froze a few bags for later to top ice cream or angel food cake later in the summer. Yum!
Becky,
ReplyDeleteI made strawberry jam last week, also. It was my first time doing that and I made 12 half-pints. It must be good, we've finished one jar already. Jenny
