They look delicious! I wish they had a strawberry field around my area. They do have blueberries & we made jam with them. I'm sure your strawberry jam will be great!

Strawberry season was so short here that I missed it! If it had hung in there another week I could have at least make jam or something. Oh well, Lord willing we will live to see another strawberry season.

Oh those look so yummy!!! Most of the strawberries sold around here by the Amish and such are the little bitty ones. Cute, but they are rather sour adn not sweet at all!
God's Blessings,

I love strawverries we have wild ones in our field..Those are small.. When I was growing up I used to take a measuring cup, pick wild berries and go around the neighborhood and sell them for .25 a cup those were the days..

Lucky you! Our strawberry crop has come and gone. Ours cost around $12 a flat. We have a town that grows the berries and also has a Strawberry Festival each year. And if you go to pick your own flats, they run about $8 per flat. Well enjoy some preserves for me too.............Kitty

Wow those are great prices Kitty.. I don't eat the jam but Ray does I also make sugar free and I will sell at the craft fair this fall and when I sell in town...
