Do you want a jam that doesn't require canning equipment or long cooking times?

The chickens love It when I clean out the refrigerator. #chickens #backyardchickens #homestead

After the storm, the sky turned a strange orange color.

Peach season is here and my pantry is quickly filling with jars of peach jam and jelly.

My flowers make a beautiful bouquet, even the wonky ones🫤
