Ever since Ida Putnam began the Jam Kitchen in 1903, visitors have come to Green Briar to savor the aromas of fresh fruits cooking on the stove or in the heat of the sun. They make mouth-watering toppings for ice cream or desserts. Jam Kitchen products are for sale in the gift shop or by mail order. Sales help support the Thornton W. Burgess Society's education programs and keep alive the spirit and teachings of Thornton W. Burgess.
Participants take home what they make plus a recipe booklet.
Our many all natural Jam Kitchen products are available by mail order. Cut each half into 3 lengthwise wedges. Remove center pith and slice each wedge crosswise into thin wedges. Place in pan and add water. Cook over medium heat until tender.
