Homemade Organic Strawberry Jam

A weekend outing to our local berry farm to pick fresh organic strawberries has become a ritual. And then I make jam at home using this easy recipe.

What you’ll need:

  • Fresh Organic Strawberries (cleaned and trimmed) – 5 pints

3. Let it cool and store in clear jars. Unless you are doing the canning process, store in refrigerator.
