- Our homestead has LOTS of wild blackberries and black raspberries. Time of year that they are ripe is SO BUSY that we pick them and put them in the freezer for a slower time of year. Now, Sarah has pulled them out and will share how to make wild berry jam!

***** About Living Traditions Homestead *****
Living Traditions Homestead is all about living a simple and sustainable way of life. We believe the world has gotten too “busy” and that people are missing out on many of the true blessings this world has to offer. We started as a small urban homestead in Gilbert, AZ and after the city grew up around us, decided it was time leave corporate America and take a big leap of faith by moving our family to the Missouri Ozarks.
We put out 5 new videos every week! Tuesday through Saturday. We hope you will become part of our homestead family by subscribing to our channel and watching as we transition from city dwellers to full time homesteaders!

Filled with antioxidants! Bet the jam will be delicious on ice cream on a hot summer day : )
If you dehydrate the pulp it is really good added to tea. Have a wonderful day.
Great idea Heidi!!
Heidi W I’ve made pulp muffins! Yum!
Oh, why didn't I think of this? Thank you!
Wow... that sounds like great subject matter for another youtube. I was just thinking about having my wife add some to her zucchini bread. She puts pineapple in it, maybe a substitution is in order.
Wow! You are so neat as you work. I would have my whole kitchen stained with berries.
LoL. Me too! When I followed her video for the cranberries, I had cranberry stains everywhere. I cleaned as I went, but a couple of days later I was still finding spots of cranberries. First time for me. I laughed every time I found a spot. I still laugh about it.
I have white cabinets like Sarah's and they are always getting splattered with something, no matter how careful I try to be. Lol
How lovely that so many of your viewers noticed you seemed a little bit low today. You are very important to us, hope you get some rest and feel supported by the collective good wishes.
Don't feel good today? Relax today, you deserve it. If sad get some hugs,cry,take a bath and pray.❤❤❤❤❤
If you don’t have a rack for the bottom of your pan you can place some jar rings on the bottom of the pan for your jars to sit on. I’ve used this trick a couple of times. Works well for me. 🙂👍🏻
I wish I knew this sooner lol!! But I am glad I know it now :) thanks for sharing!
A folded newspaper or even a tea towel works too. Anything to stop the glass making contact with the metal of the base. That way there's no danger of the glass cracking from overheating. I think it's a bigger danger with electric stoves especially the ones with the metal spiral eyes.
I have used a dish cloth or the square silicone potholder for just a few jars.
I've done that for steaming, too. Even old peanut butter lids have worked.
Whenever I watch your videos I feel like I'm visiting friends.
For 30 + years I've canned things in the winter! It heats the house and it's not a busy time of year! Just like you said! Hope you feel better soon! Missed that pretty smile, and those dimples!! It ALWAYS makes me think of my Brother, Frank, he's been gone for 10 years now. I miss him!
We have a Dessert Bullet. We take frozen black raspberries, mulberries, blackberries, and strawberries...let them partially thaw. Then put them through the Dessert Bullet. Makes like a sorbet except it's healthier. Eat like ice cream. Pure fruit. Delicious.
My Mama used to put a towel in the bottom of the canner. Her canner was oblong and fit on 2 burners at a time. She canned alot. Really miss her and the time we spent together.
wow! I'm surprised at all the comments wondering if you were o.k. I love your calm demeanor. Watching your homesteading videos has kind of become my morning zen. I watch while I have my coffee and start my day with a feeling of happy peace.
I Enjoyed the video. My husband bought me a food strainer for Valentine's day lol. He knows my heart.
When your body tells you to sit down and take a time out to rest your body, mind and spirit!! Do it!!!! I know you work hard stay very active. Take time for yourself. Take a hot bubble bath snd let time and work go. Take time for yourself!!!! Love you and your precious family
We lived on 10 acres for 25 years and every year I made blackberry jelly from our field. They grew like weeds and even though it was mowed several times a year, We let it grow once we saw the flowers on the blackberries. I had tons of jelly made just as you do and I also disliked the seeds which is why I just made jelly (strained through cheese cloth. We had so many it didn't matter that we could have made more if it were jam. I WISH I had thought to freeze them in the summer when it was so hot that making the jelly was hard work after picked batches in the morning.What a wonderful way to do it, just freeze then thaw and squish, then can. Such a good strategy and thanks for making this video. I think your potato machine worked so well! I used to grow and put up 100 tomato plants every summer. I also just learned that some people wash them and put them in the freezer whole. When thawing them, the skins peel off and sauce is almost done. Easy squeezy.
Oh good I’m not alone. You look like you trying to keep from crying. Bless your heart. Sending love and prayers your way. 🙏🥰
When my husband and I bought his family farm my Mother In Law taught me how to make wild black raspberry jelly. This was back in 1996. She helped me the first few years until I felt I could do it myself. She loved picking berries. She was the fastest picker I ever saw. She would picked berries by the ice cream pail full. She now has advanced Alzheimers and it gets a little sad thinking about her not being able to do the things she loved most. Gardening, canning and picking strawberries and wild black raspberries. I have her Ball canning book she wrote notes by recipes on how she did it. Dates she did the recipe etc. she taught me everything about canning. Her Mother In Law taught her. Maybe some day I'll be able to do the same if I ever get a Daughter In Law.
❤
You weren't quite as smiley today. I hope you are feeling alright! Still, a great video, and yes, I ALWAYS learn something when I watch. Thumbs-up!!
My mouth is watering imagining black raspberry fruit leather. But I realize this can be a time, space, and energy eater to make.
My mother (I'm 73) used a kitchen towel in the bottom of her pot so the jars didn't set directly on the bottom. She never lost a jar. She also never had a pressure canner and used her water bath canner to can everything. We never had any bad effects from this. She raised 5 children this way. Love your channel.
Wild Black & Raspberries, you can't beat it.
My work top is similar to yours it’s dyed it blue Hume , But the blackberry jam infused with Honey 🍯 turned out amazing this is my third year at it , I love doing this it’s got so many good memories from when my mother was alive making her homemade everything she could turn nothing into a dinner for 5 of us happy days, I enjoyed watching and learning from you
I love blackberries and do like the seeds, only wild ones taste the right way! Thank you for the video. I saw a comment below about how clean you keep the kitchen...the best thing I have ever made is a mess!
I love making jam. Made lots of jam, but I use Pomona's Pectin. With Pomona's you can make as large a batch as you can cook. I'd fill my large water bath canner with as many pints as would fit. The pectin doesn't go bad if you don't use it promptly and it is also low sugar. Marvelous stuff. Sour cherry jam is our family favorite. It's like eating cherry pie. Yum!
I Love binge watching your channel. Older and newer videos. I am learning so much. I have a somewhat urban homestead of sorts. We live in town but a very small town of less than 500 people.
Omgoodness Sarah, we have become such a tight net family that what I was thinking was evidently what a few others thought. I only watched you about 4 minutes and I immediately said to myself she doesn't feel good I don't think. Your smile wasn't quite the same. We love you and care about you. The whole time I was thinking, how does she do everything she does on a daily basis. She must get so tired. I hope you feel better soon or get some rest. Lol
We much appreciate you and your family.
Great video Sarah. Feeling super under the weather. So nice to take a bit of time to watch your channel!
I am seeing this for the second time and mouth is watering.
Thank you for your videos, I'm learning so much from what you share. God Bless you & your family.
Yummmmm my grandmother used to can and make lots of different jams and syrups too! Her Plum syrup on pancakes was so good and also her spiced peach jam was my all time favorite!! My grandpa took care of the big garden and she did all the canning I miss the fruits of their labor very much. Loved seeing this thanks ♥️
Not trying to nit pick, just a suggestion, that you sit the hot jars on a towel instead of the counter top, because if the counter is cold, the jar can break (when you are filling them up). Love your channel, and especially your canning videos since I enjoy canning also!
I live in a small town near Manchester in the UK and sadly could never have homestead but I love watching your videos as I can always dream Thanks so much :)
Just wanted to say hello! Manchester is my home town! 👍. I grew up mainly in Wythenshawe & Withington!
I now live in Atlanta, Georgia USA. Planning on starting our little homestead in a little over a year from now! 👍😘🇬🇧 xx
Thank you for the Rabbit cook book. I received it in the mail yesterday, I can't wait to use it.
Another great video thank you. God is good. God bless ❤️🤗🙏
We have Chester Thornless blackberries planted. We got our starts from my in-laws in Missouri. They used to have a you pick farm. The berries were developed in MO. Absolutely LOVE them and of course the picking is easy. Used to have thornless raspberries, too. They were delicious as well. We would go to the farmer’s market and sell out headed home by 10 a.m. Sarah, if you’re just wanting to make jelly, I use my juicer. It works great and to separate the seeds from the pulp I put it through cheese cloth. Wonderful jam without seeds. 😃
We just purchased property in Michigan this month and we have a lot of wild raspberries and blackberries. I am beyond excited. I can't wait to follow your recipe! Thank you for sharing. ☺
You may also consider fig trees, the Chicago Hardy would probably be my first choice for you because it is cold tolerant. My suggestion is to plant figs against the southern walls of you house. They like a lot of sun and the house keeps them warm at night.
You make it look so easy.
I love your video. Take good care. God bless all of you
I am always impressed that you demonstrate safe food preservation methods!
I'm not sure why people do like the seeds and I never noticed skins for raspberries. I really love jam with chunks of fruit. That's why I make jam instead of jelly. I love the texture.
Good morning. Love your videos.
Hi there, I enjoyed this video very much. I hope you and everybody is well. I too noticed a little sadness there. I hope everything turns out for the best. Love you guys.
Love your vids. Hope all is well. Be encouraged.
Nothing like homemade jam made with sild berries of any kind. And the fragrant smells that go through the house are so wonderful.
Thank you. Have a great day
You make great videos, I enjoy learning this way, thank you.
Great tips. Thanks for sharing.
If you put the pulp in a stainless pot and add water an inch above, bring to a boil. Let the mix stand for about 30 minutes or so, strain & add your favorite sweetener to taste. Home made juice and even more use of the berry.
Your jam looked amazing.
We strain the seed from strawberries and kiwi also to make juice for our children.
Love the video getting ready to start canning jams. Have a great day.
Haha,ha
Are your fingers still pink? Great video! I love how you just record what you're doing for the day. Makes you feel real.
I blend my berries in the Vitamix and the seeds blend right up and turns out wonderful.
Another great video! There is nothing like homemade jelly & jam!! Thanks, Sarah!
Good morning.. thank you for the wonderful video.. my neighbor made pomegranate jam for Christmas this year and OMG it was amazing talk about just eating it right out of the jar.. hope y'all have a wonderful and blessed week..
That sounds so good!
I used your recipe to make my Raspberry/Blackberry Jam. It turned out great! Thank you!
Looks yummy..thanks for sharing.
If you fill some mason jars with boiling water and place a lid and ring on them you can sterilize some water for emergencies and a full pot comes to a boil faster saving energy and fuel. Blessings
This is Darnell Davis in Paris, Texas. I really enjoy your channel. I love seeing how you do things on your homestead and your cooking and canning videos. I have a friend who lives in Washburn, Missouri in Southeast Missouri. Hope you have a wonderful day!
You can use jar rings in the bottom of the pot to replace a rack.
I bought myself one, its awesome!!
You can put a hand towel in the pot and that will keep the jars in place.
Love this--such a professional production. You always make things look easy!!
Thank you for this canning video it was so informative. I’m new to canning and you make it so easy. Thank you again.
good day to you Kevin and Sarah !! thanks for sharing another awesome update and adventures on & off the homestead 👨🌾🎥👍✝
I love hearing the "pop" of cooling canning jars whenever I can!
I have been picking wild dewberries and going to make jam with them. I like the idea of using the tomato processor for this too.
Thanks for sharing, You can use the leaves for tea.... great for cramps in the stomach. I have several mulberry's and I do not like the seeds. Next year I will be making jam out of them. Thanks again for all your hard work. PS. Canning jars are coming into the stores now... go and get them guys.
Thanks for sharing this! Very helpful
In germany we have jamsugar you use 1 Part shugar and 2parts fruits. I just fatcht some Blackberry jam fom celler and a cup of Coffee. IT is 3,30 in the afternoon. Thanks
Wonderful video! I’ve always loved wild berries. They’re like a free gift from Mother Nature. I hope you’re feeling okay. You seem a bit tired today.
I'm good! I think I was just a little tired. Thanks for caring! 😊
Living Traditions Homestead Tired is better than sick. You’re days are packed full so no real surprise that you get tired on occasion 😉
Morning from Mn.... We have black rasberries coming out our ears here in Mn so i make pancakes for grandkids when they come and stay with us they love it great video guys , God bless you and yours from us up here in the north
Millers Meadows Yummy, I see berry syrup on the horizon for you!
I actually put the berries right in the pancake mix when i make it for them.
Can I just say that I love your butter dish!!!
Enjoyed spending time in the kitchen with you today, jam looks so yummy! You do seem a little out tune, hope all is well. Hugs & prayers coming your way!
I'm good! I think I was just a little tired. Thanks for caring! 😊
That tomato gadget is awesome!
It is so satisfying to hear them ‘tink’!
Thank you
Suggestion, buy a couple red raspberry plants and put them in a area of your property out of your way....in a couple years you will have an abundance of red raspberries...oh, btw, I have them growing out into my yard also...easier to mow them over when they get unruly...and they also sell well!!
Good morning! I love blackberry and raspberry jam! Yum
In my area they do a lot Mayhaw jelly, it’s the best stuff, we used putva large cloth tarp under trees shake, pick onto making it on the stove, good ole days 🙂🙏🥰. That looks so good! 🤪 Yummy a biscuit and creamed butter! Cup of tea ☕️
My wife uses a victorio food strainer it has a berry attachment. It gets all the seeds.
My sister uses a wash cloth on the bottom of the canner. Works for her!
Love your canning videos. Take care and God bless you.
Yeah I remember how excited I was when I moved to my property to see some wild raspberry plants. And then I saw more and more and more. They were pretty much everywhere. We cut down like three quarters of them and they still come back constantly and try to overtake my horse pasture. It's nice to have them but yes they are very invasive.
I love your canning videos. You make everything so easy. My grandma made canning unbearable. When I was a kid I told myself I would never can anything ever! 😄 My now grown children and I are going mostly off grid so we will be canning everything come harvest season. Thanks to you and Kevin for yaws videos. God bless you and your family
I just bought the same set of spatulas. Even same color. Of course from Amazon. 🤗
Fun to watch!
Omg Kevin and I think a like! Tomato processor did great! This brought me back to my childhood when the kids would go out in the woods scavenging for berries. Love love love BlackBerry jam!
I enjoy your videos Sarah. I saw a video once that the person put a towel on bottom of their canning pot to stop jars clacking together. I haven’t tried it but it seems it should work fine! Have a wonderful day!
My Mom used to put a tea towel in the bottom of her canner to protect the jars. God bless
Would love some of that jam on my toast for breakfast today. Looks delicious!
I hope you are well. You seem a little out of it. Wishing you all the best. Love to you and your family. ❤️❤️
The Foley food mill should work to get seeds out too I would think . I have used the
juicer attachment from My kitchen aid mixer when doing Large batches.
My mom and her mom loved BlackBerry cobbler. I really do to, I guess cause it reminds me of them. I envy your youthfulness. Your blessed.❤❤🌈🌈🙏🙏
Looks lovely .... I really like blackberry jam (freezer jam) .... I've never removed seeds from them, nor was their a thought of doing so. I haven't made jam in a number of years now. I do pick the wild blackberries and freeze them to put in cereal/oatmeal or some such things, but I'm about ready to pick some in 2019 for freezer jam. Take care and enjoy.
Love that jam🤟
Wanted to share with you a big thank you! I just recently saw your putting up your garden spinach and making serving size portions. Since I am elderly and live alone, this is great. I had just bought a big tub of spinach and made it in individual portions, froze them and then bagged them for the freezer. Then I thought, I could do that with all kinds of things, like just started ricing cauliflower and it would really be good for this method. Now, I am going to do that method with anything that works with it, instead of using so many plastic bags. And, I have these snap lock lasagna size glass containers and they are perfect for putting all of your serving sizes in. Thank you!
Made Chocolate Raspberry Chocolate jam today. It think it might be a keeper rice. Love watching your videos. You do a great job. Thanks.
LOVED IT AS ALWAYS !
Dear Sarah, whilst researching tomato purée from that AMAZING machine, I came across a lady who advised drying the skin& seed mix that was left over. She then whizzed it in a processor to a powder. It gave a very strong Tomato tasting powder for cooking. I wonder if you could do the same with the Raspberry paste left over? By the way, my tomato sauce machine arrived two weeks ago. I was so excited. It’s a fantastic machine. Thanks for another great, informative video 😊😁☺️
I love that satisfying popping sound when the jars seal properly 💖
Your apron is so cute it matches your personality
