Since pick-your-own strawberries will be coming to an end very soon my kids and I decided to pick a few more berries and turn them into jam. I use this recipe every year because it is so easy to follow and there is no boiling water involved. My kids also love this recipe since they can help me make it and enjoy fresh picked strawberries all year long!
