Carolyn Myer has been making jam for 60 years.
“I’m the jam lady,” said Myer. “My mom taught me. Now I make my own recipes and different combinations.”
The Stockbridge resident has been part of the Chelsea Farmers Market for close to 20 years.
“I like the people here and the vendors,” said Myer. “Everyone is friendly.”
Myer said that one summer she sold 100 dozen jars of jams at three farmers markets, including Chelsea’s.
“They’re made fresh, always fresh,” stressed Myer. “My top flavors are cherry pie and peach cobbler.”
