Q: I am looking to make blueberry jam to give as a wedding favor when I get married next June. I want to can in small 2-ounce jars, but I am having trouble finding information on how to process them and how long the jam's shelf life will be in these mini jars. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Editor: Sara, congratulations on your upcoming wedding! While I haven't canned in jars quite so tiny, for my own wedding I canned jam in small 4-ounce jars and processed them with the help of a Master Preserver friend, using the same hot water bath method as you would with a larger jar.
