We have received so many requests to bring back the Pioneer Valley Jams and syrups that when Dana made the trek west, like her pioneer ancestors to the great state of Utah, she loaded up her car and brought it back with her! 

 

What makes Pioneer Valley so good?

 

COLOR

The colors of our product like jams, jellies and fruit syrups represent the true colors of the fruits from which they are made.  The colors are neither cooked down to a dull brown nor artificially enhanced with chemical additives.

 

FLAVOUR

Our jams, jellies, and syrups are made from the ripest best quality fruits.  The flavors are neither thinned out nor watered down in an effort to cut costs.  Because we are committed to making the finest quality product possible, you will never find corn syrup or other low quality ingredients in our products.

 

TEXTURE

Our jams are firm enough to hold their shape on your knife but soft enough to spread smoothly on even the softest of bread.  Just the way they should be. Never will you find a jar of Pioneer Valley that has separated, is runny, or too thick to spread smoothly.    Texture is the hallmark of a truly quality product.  A good texture shows that we are concerned enough to take the extra time, cost, and effort to make a first rate jam.

 

Jams and Jellies

 

Pioneer Valley jam is handmade in small batches from old pioneer recipes. Each batch is individually quality checked using tried and true traditional methods to ensure the best possible jam for you.

 

Pioneer Valley jam is made with premium ingredients; the ultra-premium jam that discriminating buyers demand. If you are in the market for the top echelon of fruit jam and you are not willing to settle for second best, then Pioneer Valley Jam is for you.

 

Do you deserve to be pampered? Have you earned the right to have the best of everything? Then you deserve the best jam money can buy. 

This is a heritage peach jam like your grandmother might have made. It has a subtle blend of spices and a touch of vanilla. It tastes like fresh, peach jam but there is more, it's like a great homemade peach cobbler. No wonder it is so popular.

 

"This is a great peach jam--and it really does taste like peach cobbler."

 

Editor's note: I prefer tart jams like raspberry, cherry, and loganberry but I make an exception for this peach jam. I love the mix of flavors in this jam. This is such an extraordinary peach jam that it has become one of my favorites. --Dennis

 

You'll love this carefully crafted gourmet peach jam, a perfect mixture of sweet, ripe peaches, brown sugar, and spices made to a precisely spreadable consistency. It has no fillers, corn syrup, or preservatives to mask the intense fruit flavor. This jam is simple fruit sweetened with cane sugar so you will feel good when you serve it to your family.

 

I highly recommend you spoon some of this over ice cream.  You're welcome. 

 

As with many foods, the ingredients make all the difference.

First, it's the fruit. First quality fruit picked and quickly frozen until it's ready to go into your jam. Much of the fruit comes from Pioneer Valley's own orchards so you know that the fruit is picked at perfect ripeness and processed without shipping it halfway across the country. You can't have great jam without great fruit.

 

Plus, this jam isn't diluted with a bunch of water. Some grocery store jams and jellies may be made of as much as 40% water and they're not even required to put that on the label!

 

It's also the careful, handcrafted care that a small, family-owned company puts into its jam. They know how to make great jam and they don't cut any corners.

 

How can you tell if you're getting a good jam? Look at the label. Is it made with cane sugar or corn syrup? Corn syrup is cheaper and easier to work with but it masks the flavors of the fruit. If it's made with corn syrup, what other corners are they cutting?

 

All Pioneer Valley jams are made with authentic, pure cane sugar.

You'll find Pioneer Valley jam thick, rich, and flavorful and the perfect addition to your bread and muffins. Try your favorite varieties. Each attractive hex glass jar contains eight ounces of premium jam.

This old time favorite combines the sweet mellow taste of ripe strawberries with the tangy tartness of summer rhubarb.

We use only the best quality and ripest fruits to make our juices. And we take the extra step of removing all the fruit pulp so that you can enjoy all the best fruit flavor. Our syrups are sweetened and thickened with only pure cane sugar. You won’t find any corn sweeteners, gums, or pectins in our syrups detracting from the pure fruit flavors.

 

Why are Pioneer Valley’s syrups so much darker than everyone else’s fruit syrups? Because our juices are pure and hence our flavors are not watered down like so many companies do in an effort cut costs. At Pioneer Valley we try to ADD cost in an effort to achieve the truly best quality possible. We don’t skimp on quality ingredients and we never cut corners.

 

This season we are carrying 4 flavors- Boysenberry, Red Raspberry, Apricot and of course Sherri's Blueberry. 

 

Dana even brought in the most decadent pancake mix on the market.  It's from Finding Home Farms!  A small but mighty family business in the Hudson Valley of New York.  Their pancakes are served exclusively at the Sugarhouse in nearby Middletown NY.  You may have seen them on the Food Network. Yea!  They are that good. 

 

There is no need to make scratch pancakes or waffles!  Our mix makes it quick, easy and delicious every time.   Add water, eggs and a little bit of butter and you will have the same popular waffles we serve everyday in the Sugarhouse cafe!  Same recipe will get you easy and delicious pancakes.

 

Stop in and pick up a breakfast treat the whole family is stick around for!.
