Ball Real Fruit Classic Pectin Canning Sample and Grab Used Canning Jars Now

I was excited to see this sample! Why?  Well, I just started canning for the first time ever just this past week! We ordered 15 lbs. of organic plums from our co-op and turned them into plum jam (after the dozen or so the kids consumed!!).  It was a very intimidating task for me before-hand, but it as really fun and turned out well!

So, when I saw this sample, I had to tell you as I haven’t been this excited for a sample for a long time 🙂

If you are a canner, or want to start, per the recommendation of ladies in our church, head to the thrift stores now to get your glass cannning jars.  They are significantly cheaper and will be near impossible to find in the few weeks.  We found Ball and Kerr for .15 a jar (vs. .75 in-store). Also, we were able to borrow canning equipment from others in our church as well and so if you can find friends, neighbors, etc. where you can all share equipment, it will save loads of money! Now just watch for those cheap produce deals, or if you are blessed to have a fruit tree, then you are set!

On a side note: our organic plum jam is awesome! The first taste test was on homemade bread – YUM! However, I changed the recipe as I was floored that the fruit to sugar content was the same!! No wonder why we love Jam so much!! I canned 8 cups of plum jam, but only used 2.5 cups of sugar.  The taste of the natural fruit was already pretty sweet (they were very ripe when I used them) and so that amount of sugar was the right combination.  However, if anyone has sweetener alternatives that you would recommend for the future, I would LOVE to hear!!

Thanks!!
