Our good friend Marisa of Food in Jars is a master canner/jarrer. She taught Picky how to jam figs in a private lesson bartered for with lots of figs. The fig jam was so delicious. We wish there were more figs to jam, but alas, we'll have to wait another 10 months for fig season to start up again ::sigh:: but there are always things to jam and Marisa's got the energy to teach you all.
Marisa's got two classes coming up and you can take part. She's got a post up on her blog about the classes at Philly Kitchen Share on Sunday
