Yum! Who doesn’t like homemade preserves! And when opened on a cold winter day the delicious bounty of summer comes rushing back. If you made pickles, jams or preserves this summer, please bring a labeled jar or two to the block party and swap it for something different. For those of you who don’t make jams, you may be able to buy a jar of homemade. Jams and preserves will be displayed on the “Jam Table” until the trading begins at 5:30ish.

Everyone who brings a homemade jar of preserves will get a chance to win the Energy Grab Bag, a selection of useful and environment-friendly items.
