Strawberry season has officially begun! We have a few sources for local and organic strawberries around here and I plan to take advantage of them as much as possible. Last year the kids and I were home all the time and it seemed like all we did for the first two weeks of June was [...]

Here’s a little contest for anyone out there wanting a free Human Made Sabjimata shirt. It is called: “EAT ME.” WIN THIS. The “THIS” being the shirt (like, okay, you already knew that).
So folks, here’s what you have to do. It is a bit silly, but so what. Send me something–a paragraph, a poem, a [...]
Experiential Learning or Complete and Utter Waste of My Time?

This evening I asked a friend to help me upload a three column template for my jam blog. Much of the sidebar content was trashed when the upload was complete and I was left staring at the screen with a thumping heart while my kids bounced off the walls in the room behind me. [...]

One day after my kids’ preschool, I was hanging out on the playground with some moms when one of them asked me what the name of my jam business meant. Liz, who’s partner Garret studies Eastern thought and yoga, said she knew “mata” meant “mother” but she wanted to know about the “sabji” part. [...]
Slow Food Deserves Slow Shirts

So, my “Human Made” t-shirts should be arriving soon. I hope. They are taking longer than expected. To make? To ship? I am not sure.
These shirts are a mystery. I emailed the person who designed them to see if he is cool with me crediting him on this blog for the shirts. He [...]

Sometimes I ask myself whether or not I really want to do this. Make jam. Sell jam. The whole jam business thing.
I never set out to do a business. Last year I just made much too much strawberry jam. The local Hare Krishna farm, Gita Nagari, had way more strawberries than anyone could use. And [...]
Sabjimata Jams: Totally Kosher

Sabjimata puts the “Om” back in “Shalom” with a totally kosher product line. What makes Sabjimata so kosher? There is not an ounce of treyf in my kitchen!
According to the Orthodox Union, rabbinical supervision is necessary to make sure contamination does not occur when cooking and processing food. However, the Sabjimata kitchen is a pure [...]

Recently I got an order from an attorney named Erin Englebrecht from Encinitas, CA. She had this to say about my site:
Hello!!
I was searching for some organic rose petal jam for my beloved and came across your site… your blog and products are awe-inspiring!
We’re both studying Ayurveda, and are so inspired by the wisdom, and [...]

Life just got very exciting. This is the kind of thing that does it for me. In anticipation of our move to Alachua County, Florida, and while I try to usefully utilize my time while I am stranded in State College while my children attend preschol (that’s right…preschool! I’m nuts…), I googled “Gainesville, [...]
