We planted both raspberries and strawberries over the last few years and are getting so many we can’t eat them all. We give them away, but is there something better we can do with them?

Edit: thanks for all the great responses. I think we’re going to freeze them.

    Making jam is trivial.

    You boil the fruit, and if it’s not gummy enough, you add pectin.

    Done, jam.

      How much sugar do you add?

      How long do you boil it for? (You don’t know; you have to monitor the temperature)

      How long does putting it all in jars take you? (ages)

      It’s not difficult, but it is time consuming and not trivial.
