Peaches ~ Plums ~ Apricots ~ Blueberries


I'm getting more peach jam put up, and for the first time, plum and apricot jam. All jams are reduced sugar.  These will go fast in my family.  I can utilize the plum and apricot with other meals, not just PB and J's.

The plum jam is delicious! 


So is the apricot!

I'm  starting to put enough fresh plums, apricots and peaches in the freezer to enjoy all winter too.  I'm freezing them until our our trees start supplying us an ample amount.

From the Homesteading Journal

Stocked up 2 bags of kohlrabi in the freezer.

Picked enough green beans for several meals, and put notes in the journal to double the amount we plant for stocking up.

Calling around for a barrel to install as a rain barrel. No luck yet.
