This is a nearly 3/4 full paper box of concord grapes! Can you say jelly? I am always overwhelmed this time of year with the bounty that is coming out of the garden. If my only job where to tend the home, I might me able to handle it all. The truth is, the home is usually last on the list of things to do in a day. As a result, I am going to do with these beauties what I did with them last year. I will clean them all from their vines and freeze them in zippered bags until I actually have the time and inclination to make them into jelly. There is really no need to stress about it now when the tomatoes need me most! This box full gave me about 18lbs of grapes. I have three vines that are about four years old. I am thinking that a) I probably only need one vine and b) I will soon be begging friends to help share in the bounty!
