What ingredients work best
What you’ll need to make jam with us:
3 lbs organic blueberries, blackberries, olalliberries, boysenberries or rhubarb (trimmed and cut into 1" pieces) or a combination thereof. (Frozen berries are ok! Other spring and summer fruits will be discussed in class but require advanced prep, therefore will not be able to make in real time with us.)

8-quart wide stainless steel soup pot, enameled cast iron dutch oven, or copper jam pan
