I may have to make a trip back to AK just to get my fireweed picked and maybe make a batch at my sister's house. <br /><br />Fortunately we moved right next to a womens monastery (convent) and they make fantastic peach preserves that my kids love. So maybe I can wean them onto peach down here!<br /><br />AKmamaOf7https://www.blogger.com/profile/10167349040853234835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2905411997400008164.post-26178900100644623292015-08-23T15:28:47.275-07:002015-08-23T15:28:47.275-07:00I just wanted to let you know that after seeing yo...I just wanted to let you know that after seeing your blog about fireweed jelly I decided to try it.

I'm so glad you made it and liked it. I'm happy to be finally finished making all of mine this year...36 pints should do the trick.AKmamaOf7https://www.blogger.com/profile/10167349040853234835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2905411997400008164.post-32738277887419813132014-07-15T11:47:13.308-07:002014-07-15T11:47:13.308-07:00I missed Fireweed jelly so much I decided to make ...I missed Fireweed jelly so much I decided to make my own and used your amazing recipe.
