Berry Picking Take 2

In two weeks we went through 1 1/2 containers of jam, I knew there was no way what I had was going to last us a year so I took everyone back to the berry patch to pick some more. This time we ended up with over 12 lbs of raspberries which ended up making 27 1/2 jars of jam. I am really hoping this will last us until next year, but it really seems to be going fast. Fingers crossed!!

Berry Picking

There is a berry farm in Mapleton that you can pick your own raspberries and blackberries, I wanted to do it last year but never had a chance. This year I was determined so we decided to make it part of our Labor Day weekend and went Monday morning.

The boys had gone camping Sunday night and Leka and Grandma Morris spent the night with us so we took them with us.

We ended up with 6 pounds of raspberries that we turned into 7 jars of freezer jam. YUMMY!!
