Ground Cherry Jam!

Ground cherries have to be one of the most underrated vegetables to grow. You plant them and then patiently wait for the tomatoes wrapped in a papery husk to drop to the ground. Then gather them up before you forget about them or the insects eat them. They are sweet and delicious 😋

Typically I just add them to what ever I am canning with my tomatoes. This year we had a ton of volunteer ground cherry plants and I am still waiting for most of my tomatoes to ripen.

So I decided to try something new and make ground cherry jam. It did not disappoint! I can't wait to add this to my next turkey sandwich!

Ingredients for jam:
3 cups husked ground cherries
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice

What is something new you canned this year?

Friday is Loop Day!

Loop is an organization that connects farmers to grocery stores. Each day, a different farmer will pick up that grocery store food waste. The goats, geese, ducks, and rose all get an assortment of bread, cake, and vegetables, and this time, they got some candy and nuts. Rose went straight for all the sweet stuff! The meat, dairy, and Deli items I give to a neighboring farm for their animals as I am unable to utilize it all. The dogs will receive a few steaks and livers from Loop as well that we cook up for them. It's a great treat for the animals!
