More Rain ~ More Jam
I'm canning more jam. More strawberries went into the freezer, but I have four quarts left. It rained off and on, so I could not get into the garden early anyway.
After the first morning batch was made yesterday, I was summoned to take school photos (albeit a bit late this year). We do not purchase many school photos, due to the high cost, and the girls like to pick out their background here on the homestead.

Canning Season Starts ~ Strawberries ~ Random Tidbits
Ideally, if we don't get any of one vegetable or fruit, we just do without. However, we picked up 12 quarts of strawberries. I took care of six quarts yesterday, but only canned jam once. Many went into the freezer.
