Oh Vfem...I'm sooooo happy for you! I've been thinking how your jams were selling and was thinking of sending you a pm. It's great that you keep us posted. We really do care. :)

You guys are fabulous, you keep my motivated in my garden and in my life. I can't help but share all the good with the people who get me to where I am.

i swung by yesterday to drop off 6 more jars (I was going to drop off 12, but after a hospital visit this week and several doctor appointments as well as running errands for my mom and neighbor!) that's all I could manage until I had time to can again.

They're best seller, Blackberry jam... but out of 8 jars, when I went on Saturday, there were still 2 left. So I didn't bother to bring any. I get there yesterday and they are out, not only that but when I'm standing there a customer walks up and asks for more blackberry jam! LOL

So I was up canning blackberry and blueberry last night. :D

It just kinda perked my week up at that moment. ;)

How have I missed this thread?!? I'm so happy for you!

Blackberry always sells like crazy for us too. And Raspberry does well - if you can find the fruit, try it.

You might ask them if they get requests for sugar free jams as well. I sell a fair amount of them.

I have some reduced sugar available now, but don't know how long that will last. My mom keeps takin' 'em! :lol: They are good though!

I canned more pink watermelon and strawberry last night.... 18 jars total.

I've been canning jam all week trying to catch up and I just can't get ahead... so I shouldn't complain. ;)

I am trying to come up with a new jelly... and after a little night of drinking, I'm thinking a mojito jelly would be nice!!! :D
