About this Product
One of the greatest blessings we have living in northern Minnesota is the treasures found in our wild berry bushes and trees. We are blessed to live in an area surrounded by state and county forests and in those forests we gather chokecherries, elderberries, wild plums, wild grapes, high bush cranberries, gooseberries and so much more. The availability of these wild crafted jellies depends upon the amount of berries that can be found and the amount of energy and time it takes to harvest them. Because so much of the growing and foraging of these berries is out of our realm of influence, we feel each and every batch is a rare treasure. Wild berries are naturally more tart than domestically grown fruits and we do not dilute the juice of the berry with artificial sweeteners or preservatives. Our jelly reflects the pure goodness of nature's crafting. So if you have a fondness for some "tart" with your sweet - than these are the jellies for you! When you purchase this listing, you will have the option of purchasing up to three (8 oz.) jars of artisan wild crafted jelly. Simply write your preferred flavors in the "My Flavor Choices" or message me - either way will work. The list of flavors can be found in the photos above. We have tons of other wonderful options for foodies, home chefs, and bakers so if you'd like to keep shopping for artisan jam, syrup, mustard, shrubs or herbs you can return to the Boondock Enterprises home page at Shops :: Boondock Enterprises (goimagine.com)

Meet the Maker
Michael is Louisiana born and bred. He married a northern Minnesota farm girl and after retiring from the Air Force he found himself living in the woods of MN where temperatures can get lower than his Louisiana freezers. But he has adapted well.
Dawn is a Minnesota farm girl turned 1st grade teacher. She married her southern man and after he retired from the Air Force they moved back to her family farm. She has a passion for children, gardening and wholesome, simple foods .
After retiring from the military we purchased the farm Dawn was born and raised on in northern Minnesota with the hopes of finding a simpler lifestyle. With a great deal of faith and prayer we began working the land and found our passion. Our gardens grew, our fruit trees grew, our passion grew. We are personally involved in every step of our jelly and herb production. We till our soil, plant our crops, weed our gardens, and harvest our bounty. Our goal is always to provide a product that we would proudly serve on our table, to our friends and family.
We started out with simple vegetables grown for our local farmer's market and that expanded into homemade jams and jellies, artisan coarse ground mustard, herbal products and crafts. As we worked the farm in the summer heat and brutal winters, we soon found a need for quality skin care products and created our lotions and lotion bars.
All our fruits, berries and herbs are grown without chemicals or pesticides and are picked at the peak of ripeness, so the flavor is at its best. My jams and jellies are made with only a few key ingredients, so you won't have any problems trying to figure out what you are eating. They are gluten free, non-GMO, vegan and contain no artificial chemicals and preservatives; but only loads of sun ripened fruit, sugar and gluten free apple pectin Our herbs are also grown using natural, holistic practices and our herb products are also gluten and sodium free and non-GMO.
