Calendar
the list of all the jams and jellies we made in 2017
The advent of grocery stores, international shipping and refrigeration has made fresh fruits easily available throughout the year. As a result, we have become removed from how fruits/flowers/vegetables have specific weeks where they taste the best. It felt grounding to re-familiarize ourselves with the seasonality of our fresh produce.
