"Gathering" Continued--


A pie I made for Thanksgiving with some of the Blueberries and Huckleberries I picked --
it was Taaaaastyyyy!


 Update on the Rosehip Jelly:  It worked!  Look at that beautiful juice!


The Sitka Wild Rose grows all over here -- Should have started harvesting them sooner!  The only other ingredients in the Jelly are lemon juice, sugar, and the pectin.  As a novice, I was pleased it set up right and that the jars sealed!  Planning on harvesting more next year.  You can also dry them for tea or make fruit leather.  I want to try jam next time ; )


Uhh, what could be cooler than eating pretty jelly on toast made out of the fruit of a rose?
