Wow. I really have been silent this past year!
Remember this idea?

Yeah. It kind of fell through last year (surprised? No? Me either)
Anyway. I want to give it another go this year.
I'm not going to go into the whole breakdown of strawberries since I already did that one

But I will say that this years totals are as follows:
Cost: $25.00
Obtained: U-pick
Amount: Almost 16 pounds.
Preserves:
5 half pints strawberry jam
3 half pints strawberry rhubarb jam
5 half pints and (3) 4oz jars berry wine jelly
1 quart strawberry vinegar
1 quart strawberry vodka
5 quarts frozen berries
Plus, plenty of fresh eating.
Really looking forward to seeing how the rest of the summer costs out!
