A jar of fruit spread can do more than finish a piece of toast. Forbes Farmstead Market makes homemade spreads, including apricot jam with a little vanilla.

Wendy and Larry run the market. Wendy joined Larry on the family farm after they married in 2016, adding another chapter to a farm that spans generations.

Their apricot jam brings dried apricots together with sugar and fruit pectin. Swirl it into yogurt or serve it beside cheese when you need a quick breakfast or snack.
