Why Crooked Plum?

When we first moved onto this property 15 years ago one of the only trees here was a plum tree.  After years of neglect and improper pruning the tree started to die.  Only one side of it did and the other side of the tree continues to grow and produce plums.

Plums are the first thing we attempted to process and save on our homestead.  For several years now we have made plum jam.

This year we have processed plum jam and plum butter.  This afternoon we are going to attempt plum BBQ sauce.  We will let you know how that comes out.
