Most people that know me,
know that I adore canning.
I love the entire process...
the smell of the fresh berries,
the heat of the berries cooking,
the sweet sugar,
and then the best part...
the pop-pop-pop of the jars sealing themselves.
When I hear that sound,
I know that summer has been saved and
people will be enjoying a little bit of summer
on any day of the year.
There's a very simple joy in the process.
I also love that I know everything that is in those jars.
I know the farms that grew the berries,
I know the amount of sugar,
and I know that it's been made with all the love that I can squish in there.
Also, I know that with each jar
not only are people enjoying the goodness of homemade jam,
but they are doing something very good.
You see, I don't jam to make money...
nope...not at all.
I jam to raise money for my heart projects.
All of the profits go to help animals.
Often the money goes directly to Fences For Fido
to help us unchain dogs around Oregon and SW Washington,
other times it goes to a need that I see in the community like
Oregon Humane Society, Strut Your Mutt, or P.A.W.S.
Currently, I'm saving money to help stray dogs get medical help and their forever homes.
This is a big goal,
but I'm hopeful that all of this jam will make the difference
in lives of precious souls that I don't even know yet!
Have I tempted your heart and tummy yet?!
Well, if not, maybe this list of jam flavors will.
- Strawberry
- Raspberry
- Blueberry-Lime
- Blackberry
- Prickleberry (Raspberry and Blackberry)
- Triple Berry (Strawberry, Raspberry, and Blackberry)
- Berry Field (Strawberry, Raspberry, Blueberry, and Blackberry)

- Peach Pie (A taste of peach pie in each bite!)
- Vanilla Maple Bourbon Peach
- Peach Bellini (Peach with Champagne)
- Apricot
- Cherry
- Pear-Cardamom
I make a variety of sizes of jam, but each flavor has a very limited amount of sizes available.
It is really first come, first serve.
I only make jams at the peak of freshness, so that limits the supply greatly.
If there is something that you would like,
don't hesitate to have me hold them for you.
I'm happy to do that. :)
4 ounce = $2.00 (extremely limited!)
8 ounce = $4.00 (most popular size)
