Making the best preserves requires using sustainably grown local fruit that is not frozen or refrigerated and that is processed within a day of attaining ripeness. It is hand-cut and cooked by open kettle method without the addition of pectin, and is prepared in batches that contain no more than 7 pounds of perfectly ripened fruit. Each batch of Artisan Preserves is carefully prepared and adjusted to accommodate variation in fruit due to changing seasonal conditions. No batch of preserve can be identical because it is hand made and each picking of fruit has it's own character. Pleasure of flavor as well as color, texture and clarity are the goal of my art. I have always been firm believer in eating locally grown and produced food.
