We have far too much space to leave it all as garden, but it takes J. about 3 hours maximum to mow all of our lawn and he always does it in stages, so never too much at once. Our total property is 80' x 200' and it already looks wild. =>}
My Mum always made jam in the summer from whatever fruit was going at the time - strawberries, raspberries, peaches, plums, apples (mostly jelly), she even made her own mint jelly. So I learned very young how to make jam and have (almost) never had a problem with it.
There's nothing like sitting all cozy at the dining room table on a frosty -30ÂșC day, eating the fruits that grew in the hot summer. =>}
