Strawberry Season

It's nearing the end of peak strawberry season here on our central Ohio farm, but we've eaten many pounds raw, shared with friends and family, made strawberry puree for homemade icecream, etc. and are preparing to make many half-pints of jam today to get us through the rest of the year.  We use Pomona Pectin so we don't need the huge amount of sugar called for in many traditional recipes.  It works great!  Tomorrow is the summer solstice...a bittersweet day, but one we will celebrate whole heartedly!
