Perfect Concord Grapes

October 05, 2015  •  Leave a Comment

All my concord grapes are now picked this year. I made my first batch of concord jam with 10 lbs and preserved 12 jars. The next 12 jars are on the way. The grapes are big, plump, and juicy and a lot of them are absolutely perfect.

I probably lost about 25% this year to bugs, wasps, an opossum, and likely raccoons too. I don't spray them with anything but water, so if my grapes are good enough for bugs and nighttime animals, they are good enough for me, even if I lose some.
