Most people I have talked to, do not know what a serviceberry is. It's almost like a mini-blueberry, but starts out looking like a mini-cherry. It has the flavor of a blueberry, and is, what I call, seedy.
All the recipes for serviceberry jam, that I could find on the internet, used a large portion of these berries. If you've picked them, you know it takes a lot of picking to get even a few cups.

Wear it out,

It's In!
I planted the very last vegetable on Sunday.
Saturday, I thought we had everything in, until Hubby picked up a bag and said, what about this? Ha ha ha ha! Oh, I was so excited it was all in and wanted to throw that bag at him.
We reached a high of 95 degrees on Saturday, but Sunday it was in the 70's. On Saturday I chipped ice for my chickens. We had to put fans in the barn too. The animals were not going outside in the heat, and were looking for relief.
