I learned how to can (from a great friend!) this week, and it was such a great feeling! I loved being able to use the abundance of produce off of my OWN fruit trees. This week I canned a ton of applesauce. And the only ingredient is... apples! I also canned pears and then today I had a couple of girls come over and we cleared my plum tree and made plum jam. Not to sure about it yet, I have never tried plum jam, but they were becoming over-ripe so I had to do something with them. I think the next item on the agenda is home-made apple butter. I have used all of our pears, all our plums and I still have an abundance of apples on our tree, so I need to get creative!
