MAKE YOUR OWN grape jelly & juice from SCRATCH ~ concord grapes, low sugar recipe 

Last month I made my first jam at 62, it was peach. I was so proud of myself. Can’t wait to make more with different fruits.

Brings back memories of my Dad and me putting up apple sauce, Cucumber pickles, Peaches and Grape Juice and making Bread He did it all and I helped 😊

So happy to see Maysie! And, yes, a lot of work for a small yield, but nothing like homemade. 💜 🍇 🫙

That grape jelly on the sourdough toast looks delicious! Moose & Maysie obviously wanted some😂. Thanks for sharing this with us Brooke!!❤️❤️

This is the first time that I have seen these wild grapes in 67 or so years. Love your videos.

The foam was always my favorite part when my mom was making jelly. We got to put it and a little hot jelly over vanilla ice cream. Yummy! I am a type 1 diabetic now so I can't eat jelly anymore. I still make some every year or so.

We don’t have Concord grapes in Colorado. At least I’ve never seen them here. My grandmother used to make concord jelly from scratch- the smell and the taste make me go back in time! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Anything one makes from what you find in the fields or your own garden is so much worth it. You know whats exactly in your food. Thanks for this video. Be Blessed!

Here 'she' is in her sparrrre time {haha} just whippin' up some homemade goodness!! Our favvv gal donning her signature braids. Tx for sharing Brooke.

I remember my mom making jelly and jams when we were kids. It always smelled so good and tasted wonderful. There is nothing like homemade. Thank you for sharing.

looks really tasty and it’s also nice to see daisey at the end of the film.bless her

Hey Brooke! I've never seen grape jelly or grape juice actually made before. Pretty cool!

Looks delicious Brooke! Thanks for the reminder to go out and battle the yellow jackets for my grapes. For my grape jelly I leave a few of the larger good looking green ones, as well. They add some more pectin, which helps it jell, and a bit of tartness. Last year I harvested a few pounds of crab apples and canned up my own liquid pectin. I'm going to use that for my jelly this year. It will be my first time. Wish me luck!

Did my next challenge yesterday...got up and took a very cold shower...gets the blood moving...had plans to hike another waterfall...this one was where the movie Deliverance was filmed....has to be done if the most beautiful gorges I have ever seen...after walking for about 1/2 mile we went to the trail...you either walked a mile in and turned around to go back to the car...once I got to the mile marker I made the decision to keep going and completed the entire trail which was 1.6 miles long...once I made that decision there was turning back.....my wife and her brother did the mile and turned around to go back to the truck...I finished the trail and had to wait for the other two to drive to pick me up...beautiful walk....just do it....have a blessed day Brooke....

Now, THIS is one of the very best videos -- EVER --- UPLOADED BY ANYONE -- -- -- EVER!!! Thanks so very much for taking the time to show folks just how easy that it is to get the very best nutritional & natural foods that a human being can ever hope to eat. Just a sublime & superb video. I'm so grateful. Thanks again :) Much Love & Respect -- Directly from the rolling hills and fertile farmlands of Pennsylvania!! :) Domari Nolo PA III

This is my family (Amish & Mennonites) recipe. Do NOT toss out the pulp after juicing. Take pulp and run thru Victoria Strainer using grape screen. The sauce that comes out, treat as apple sauce but it's suppose to be a bit sweet tart. Freezing is great but can water-bath can for 10 min. Run the pulp thru twice. The remains are great for chickens and/or compost. This is so wonderful! And there is no waste on the grapes🤩🍇. Happy eating😋 Brook🙋🍏🍎

It was so wonderful to see Maisie again! Thank you, Brooke!

Greetings from lower michigan... thank you for sharing this experience with us. I love that I found something my daughters can watch with me... thankyou for providing content appropriate for my young daughters!

Loved the videoBree, takes me back to watching my mom and grandma making jelly when I was a little boy 60 some odd years ago. Seem to remember that they sealed the jars with paraffin and when the wax hardened, they would cover the jars with a little square of cloth. We would make jelly from all the local berrys that we picked including elderberrys and wild cherrys. So good.

That looks delicious! Thanks for sharing 😋

So happy to see Maysie with Moose it's been awhile. That toast and grape jelly looked so good, nice video thanks.

I love grapes. That's so cool you had fresh grapes to make juice and jelly. I really enjoyed the video.👍😀

That reminded me of my Nana. She would have it hanging over the kitchen sink . Loved those homemade Jan's n jellies!😍

Wow! I think I could do that. I'm 62 and I canned veggies for the first time since about 1972, this year. I could only do a few jars per time because of my spine problems but I enjoyed it so much. Next may be jelly😁🤗🤗 I'd love to build a little workshop for my crafting and hobbies too. Maybe next year. Lol

Awesome video! Not enough people do stuff like this anymore! Everyone should know how to can🙂 Nice Job Brooke!

I enjoy watching you in the woods and all canoeing you do while camping and building of camps digging Wells hiking and most of all when you just sit and chill at a fire I too have a fire pit in my backyard my wife and I go camping have a Big t e n t had a small rustic cabin for 10 years in the town of Florence with five anchors of woods loved it I also love the Adirondacks and the changing seasons thank you for all you do

That’s pretty cool, Brook. Your the best. 😋

That was a pretty picture with the toast and grapes

Wow, that looks so delicious. I love your cooking and videos!

Wow that looks delicious! This was awesome

That was cool, I have never made jelly before. Not sure if I ever will but you made it look pretty easy thank you.

hey, Lady! glad to see ya still at it..Cheers, and be safe this winter..God bless

I remember my grandmother making Concord Grape jelly in the 70's. She would seal hers with a layer of that canning wax.

My grandma used to make her own strawberry preserves for toast and it was sooo good I'm trying to replicate it nothing bought in store compares to hers. She also made an apple cinnamon jam that i can't even find in stores

Thanks for sharing the grape jelly recipe. I love grape ANYTHING! Note, liquid pectin and dry pectin are NOT interchangeable when making jams and jellies. Be sure to follow fully tested and accurate canning recipes that will yield healthy and safe processed foods.

Thanks for sharing! Agreed, nothing beats homemade. 🙂

Yummy. My Grandma many moons ago made grape jelly from her vines. She would let me me have some after she mad her batches. Was easy to make. We used Peritan.

Oh my goodness I LOVE grape jelly/jam, than you for this video girl!! Ontario, Windsor Canada

My mouth is watering right now. My grand mom used to make apple jelly, and it is really great seeing someone making things from scratch. Love your video's, and be blessed

So good to see Maysie

I love when you cook and share your recipes with us. Thanks Brookie!

This reminds me of when I was a teenager and Mom made the grape jelly from Grandpa's Concord grapevines. And also the homemade sourdough bread . ( made from the sourdough starter that she had for years. It got better with age) That all stopped as the 7 of us kids left home. We had a freestone pear tree that was so loaded we were always afraid it would break under the weight of so many pears. Mom made pear honey. Delicious !!! I used to do some canning and jelly making. Maybe I will again. Still reeling from the loss of my soulmate. 😭

I remember those days. Happy ones. Thanks for sharing. Good day. Good week. Stay well. See ya next time.

That foam was the goal for us kids to spread on some soft white bread!

Thanks Brooke for sharing and showing on how to make grape jelly I love watching your videos your the best 🙂

Great job Brooke.. looks good~♥

Thanks Brooke! I had forgotten why I might add a tad of butter to the fruit juice....... I'm boiling crab apples right now.

As usual you broke it down beautifully. I'm definitely getting into making my own jelly now.

Great video!🤔Think I might want some jam,and the juice would be nice too!.You are definitely a motivational speaker for sure!I have had 2 fires since the awakening and have started a big shelter(wintercamp) out in my forest!😊Thank you for reminding me that after tragic loss,there is still hope,and joy💕💕💕💕You are truly wonderful..🤗 from Hammy💕🎵

Nice to see you doing some canning from food grown locally in the wild.

I'm definitely going to try and make this sometime soon.

Just went through a week of Hurricane Ian storm and aftermath. Still a bit shaky from the experience. What a delight to finally get electricity back and your "new" episode popped up to watch. Thanks for your wonderful work.

My mom always made different jellies and canned fruits and vegetables that were grown on her land. I would steal a jar of plums and head to the hills behind our home before she caught me. I would sit up there enjoying the views and the wildlife just me and my beagle Blue. Those were the days for sure. Thanks Brooke for taking me back to the good days of my childhood. 💜

Omg, you are amazing and inspiring. I have always wanted to can stuff. Jelly or jam might be the first thing I try since you made it look so easy. ❤️

Your video's are always, informative, fresh, fun..... Blessings to you and yours:)

Great vlog; thanks for sharing. I think the measured cups before straining may have given you a little less grape juice (some was in the cloth with the seeds, etc.). Looks yummy! Many blessings to your family 🤗❤️🇨🇦

That was great! I ‘m going to do it myself! Thank you Brooke!

Thanks Brooke 🤗 looks delish as juice or jelly on sourdough bread 😋 take care🙏🇺🇲

That looks good. I think Da moose and Da wolf wanted some too!

That jelly looked so yummy, Brooke, and it was so good to see Maysie. Thanks for sharing.

Hey Brooke you need to get a fruit steamer!! It takes away all that straining.. I love mine it's my most favorite canning gadget! You can use it for grapes, and all other fruits.. I've used it for crabapples, elderberries and sometimes I clean the older fruit out of my freezer and I put it all through the steamer and make a mixed fruit jelly with the juice! I can send you photos of it in action if you like.. Let me know..

I love grape juice,thanks for this video.

...great recipe, love concord grapes, keep well...

Totally loved this video!! Definitely going to make some jelly next year!

GREAT VID, YOU FORGOT TO GIVE US THE FIRST BITE!! LOL,LOL, KEEP SAFE AND WELL, FROM UK.

Yummo!! ..And back in your cozy kitchen! 🙂

It always feels good after canning & to hear them pop!!! Miss it yet a lot of work!!

Jelly looks delicious and that's a beautiful loaf of bread!

MMMM that looks so good and thank you for showing us how to make it. Blessings

Looks amazing Brooke.

My uncle grew grapes for Welch's on his farm in southwest Michigan & made wine with some of them.

Oh yum, thank you for showing us how to make grape jelly. Im going to give it a go. I moved to Germany and discovered an Elderberry tree/bush across the road from where we live in the countryside. I Googled how to make Elderberry Syrup, and made it myself. It was so easy. I was so thrilled. I made my 1st 3 bottles last year, and my second 3 bottles in around June this year. Then I discovered our piece of wild, overgrown plot had wild blackberries growing on it. Yay. I picked those. I used 1:1 jam sugar. I weighed the berries, then measured the same weight in sugar. And in a 10 mins, I made my first little batch of blackberry jam. It was so wonderful and rewarding.. I felt all proud of myself in a good way. Sometimes we doubt ourselves. Oh, and I just found a second hand food dehyrator. 👌That was on my bucket list for years. They are very hard to find where I live. My next first, is to dehydrate some fruit, etc. So, thank you Brooke for inspiring us with everything you do, and making it fun. 💖 You have to get outside, go exploring, or go thrifting to find those treasures. Finding food is also treasure. Hugs to the fur babies. Love to everyone, all the way from Germany.

I remember mom making grape freezer jelly I think he used parafene wax to seal on top for freezer burn

Girl Im glad you do this to help out the good people in hard times a coming, may God really bless you.

Looks so yummy! Thanx for the recipe video Brooke! Stay blessed! ❣️😎

Thank you for sharing the recipe Brooke :)

Thank you for all that you do and sharing your beautiful life with us and the things you love doing . You truly are an amazing person and a gift from God .

Thanx Brooke. Good demonstrational video, Concord and Muscadine are my 2 favorite grapes. God bless.😃

"WOW"!!! Yum!!! Thanks a mill for sharing Brooke...love it...homemade wonderful!!!

Oh geez, your sourdough bread....toasted....with homemade jelly. I love you!

Love that you use a pastry cutter for crushing the grapes, I will give it a try . I have a bunch to sort tomorrow and make Jelly. ❤

Thanks for the tips on making jam. 🙏

I just picked my first harvest of concord grapes this weekend! I'm excited to give this a try :)

As soon as you set the grapes on to boil, my mouth started watering, lol! Our family had concord grapes and we made jelly every year. My mom would freeze the juice in empty ice cream buckets and add to it as more grapes ripened and were processed. My favorite part was getting into the frozen juice when no one was looking and scraping a bunch out with a spoon to eat as a treat. (Then my mom would gripe at me for getting into it). :)

Another great video Brooke!

Looks awesome 👏

I remember my grandmother making Concord Grape jelly in the 70's. It was so good on her homemade biscuits.......yummy 🤗

I remember as a kid, mom would make both grape and BlackBerry Jelly. My dad and I would pick the grapes or blackberries. and mom would let me help make the Jelly.

thanks. i had not watched a full ....of your girl in the woods for however long: but bumped the start button today; and no guess who there, brooke. sure loved the jelly

Great Brooke! Gonna try to make it . Also I have a lot of muscadines too I’ll try. I just saw a medical show saying purple grapes as well as coffee are top antioxidants. Very good for the body. Thank you for your instruction.

Lol we didnt get the first bite. 😉 looks delicious! 🥰

So lovely too see you after a long time ❤

I would use some as natural dye on fabrics, crafting

Growing up we had grapes rhubarb pears and apple trees. I miss that time. Today making apple pecan cake and more sweet banana peppers.

Fantastic, even if we didn’t get the first bite☺️

Just in time, been wondering what to do with those grapes 🍇 now you gave me what I needed,thanks friend 👊👍🤤🍇💞

All of your videos along with your husbands are the very best!

Concord grape pie is lovely too! ❤️

I love all your recipes, Brooke. Thanx for sharing with us

As a kid we had two huge concord grape trellises that had to be at least 20 feet long. I remember as a kid sitting in the shade and eating the grapes right off the vine and then picking washing mashing to prepaire for jelly and jam. Thanks for the memories!
