Yesterday we went huckleberry picking. It has been like 3 years since we moved here and we just finally got someone to tell us where to get huckleberries! People are very secretive about their good picking spots! I guess you can get $80 a gallon for the berries, and after picking them I can see why :) It is so tedious! But it was still a really fun outing and we plan on putting them in pies and making jam and freezing some in little bags for the winter.

I think we are going to go up again and take some friends with us - that will be a lot of fun!
We didn't use very much at all to make jam - we can always take the bags out of the freezer to make more if we like it :) I couldn't believe how much sugar went into the jam - but it is really tasty :)
We tried some on our toast this morning and it was awesome!!! :)
What a blessing to be able to harvest something from God's creation to feed our family!
