Welcome to Backyard Jams & Jellies


Here's our story

My name is Krista and Backyard Jams and Jellies is my business. I started making jellies more than 25 years ago after asking for the recipe of a green hot pepper jelly I had tried at a friend’s house. I was hooked! My husband loves to garden so I started making jams and jellies out of whatever was in season in the backyard. At the time my neighbors owned Franklin Hardware Store in Lewes. One afternoon, while picking grapes, my neighbor suggested that I put a few jars in the hardware store. They flew off of the shelves - especially the Beach Plum Jelly, a local favorite. I guess that is when my hobby started to turn into a business. Now I make over 85 flavors, including fourteen award winners!

Take a look around to see what flavors are being sold in your neighborhood.
