A true artisanal process

I first learned jam making from my grandfather, whose three minute red currant jelly
was one of the joys of my childhood. Grandpa had an armoire filled with rows of preserves,
the jars sealed with a layer of parafin and capped with a square of cellophane.
Being trusted to pick out the next jam for the breakfast table was a thrill.

All my preserves are made in old-fashioned small batches from the most flavorful
fruits and berries I can find.

I use only fresh fruit and pure cane sugar, sometimes an infusion of herbs from
the garden, but never any industrial pectin.
To preserve the delicate flavor of the fresh fruit and minimize cooking time,
I keep the batches to five pounds of fruit at a time.
Most are made using our own fruit, though I also use Vincent Farm's Blenheim apricots and Tom Shepherd's or Lane Farm's Chandler strawberries, because we don't grow them, and strawberry and apricot jams are just too delicious to pass up.

 

Custom Batches

Maybe you have a favorite preserve you never want to be without, or perhaps you need the perfect party favor for a special event. I will be glad to make a custom batch for you.
A minimum of 12 jars applies to custom batches.
