GIRL MEETS DIRT: Island Plum Preserve, 7.75 oz

Orcas Island’s beloved Italian Plums (Prune Alley, in the middle of town, used to be a country lane through an orchard of Italian prune trees) shine in this well-rounded preserve-accented with garden grown anise hyssop. Deep purple, rich, with just a hint of licorice from the anise hyssop, this was among the first preserves we made – following a bounty of plums from Founder Audra’s farmette tree her first season here.
