Quote from: larry9988 on August 18, 2016, 09:20:24 PMI am from south Georgia in Mayhaw country and it is my absolute favorite jelly of any kind. Mayhaws grow on small trees that grow in low areas that hold water during part of the year. They look like tiny little pink apples and have a pit in the middle. They are very tart tasting off of the tree, but make delicious jelly. There is even a small community called Mayhaw and they have a Mayhaw festival in Colquitt, GA. The trees are in the quince family if I remember right. We also have hoghaws that are very small but make good jelly too. Mayhaw jelly is really good to me on buttered toast. They make such good jelly that the haws sell for $20 a gallon. You usually have to wade in the water among the mosquitoes and water moccasins to pick them up, so $20 a gallon ain't so bad.

We wade around, spread a tarp, shake the tree, then we dump what we catch in buckets. We hardly ever get more than 2-3 gallons during a trip, but that makes quite a bit of jelly. We usually boil down the juice and freeze it if we have too much.
