Blackberry Jam

I've been watching how fast the strawberries in the poly-tunnel have started to take off and keep thinking that I need to make jam with all the blackberries that mum and Ally picked last Autumn. Not to mention the 5kg of strawberries that are in the deep freeze too. 2015-04-11 18.03.52With Chris still away for the day and Paul gone to Galway for the weekend I finally got down to making some jam. Managed to get 43 jars of blackberry jam made. There are still 5kg of blackberries and 5kg of strawberries so Chris suggested I made a mixed fruit jam. I also have a few crates of apples that I can add to the mix as well.But first I need to take care of the evening jobs, milk 2 cows, milk 2 goats, and feed everyone else and put them to bed...
