Strawberry season snuck up on me. Canning season officially started yesterday. I'll be even busier the next few days. I was so no ready for this either. I used my jam maker yesterday and got a small batch of reduced sugar jam made.
I had a horrible time finding the pectin I use for the jam maker. I also had to go to 3 stores to locate liquid pectin. Last year we couldn't find jars, or lids, and this year it's other supplies.
My new item for the island store. I'm working on the packaging. I'm thinking about getting some white sand from the Dollar Tree and glue a bit in the bottom corner with a tiny seashell. What are your thoughts? Leave it as is, or add the sand and seashell? It will go into a plastic bag with our farm store label on the backside.
