Jams at the farmers market

Throughout the warm weather months we harvest and preserve many of the delicious fruits, peppers, basil, and flowers that we either cultivate or grow wild on our family's land.  We also infuse a simple syrup with a variety of herbs fresh from the garden.  Below is a listing of what we typically put-up, although not every item is available all the time.

Mail Order service is available for our jams and syrups.
