Grab yourself some fresh figs — not those beat-up ones that look like they’ve been through a chicken fight — nice, whole figs that are still holding their shape. Step 1: Wash ’Em Gently Give those figs a good rinse, but handle ’em like they’re little baby chicks. You don’t wanna bust ’em up — that’ll make your syrup cloudy and your preserves won’t hold up near as pretty. Now, some folks like to cut the stems off. Me? I leave ’em on. I think it gives the jar that old-fashioned, “just-picked” look. But hey, you do you. Step 2: The Sweet Soak In a medium bowl, toss your figs together with sugar and a few thin lemon slices. Be gentle, y’all — you’re not making fig mash. Cover that bowl up and stick it in the fridge for at least 6 hours, or just let it rest overnight. That’s when the magic starts happenin’. Step 3: Fire Up the Stove Next morning (or when you’re ready), dump everything — figs, syrup, and lemons — into a heavy-bottomed stainless or enamel-coated cast-iron pot. Bring it all to a boil, then back it down to a good simmer. Let it bubble away for about an hour. Try not to mess with it too much — stirring can break up those figs, and we want ’em to stay whole and pretty. Step 4: Watch for That “Strong Tea” Color Over that hour, your syrup’s gonna darken up to the color of a strong cup of tea, and those figs will shrivel up a bit but still hold their shape. Don’t worry about skimming the top like you do with other jams — it ain’t that serious here. About 45 minutes in, dip a spoon in the syrup and drag your finger down the back. If the syrup stays split for a second before running back together, you’re done. If it runs off like water, let it cook a little longer. Step 5: Jar It Up You ought to end up with about 4 pints of some of the best fig preserves you’ve ever had. Perfect for biscuits, toast, or straight outta the jar if nobody’s lookin’. ---------------- **(Please note that some of the links above are affiliate links, & at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you decide to make a purchase after clicking through the link)** Thanks cog squad for hanging with the me on the farm today, and hope you have a wonderful day!

-Our Main Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@CogHillFarm -Lubrisyn: https://shop.lubrisyn.com?bg_ref=TijQOiQO3Y & promo code CogHill for 25% discount ------ Good morning, friends. In today’s video, I’m starting off in the barn with our juvenile chicks who have been thriving in their new space, and then we’ll head around the farm to check in on everyone—Tater, Matilda, Little Man, Moody, and of course Nugget, who has decided he isn’t quite done with pool season yet. But today’s video is about more than just a farm update. It’s been two years since my health took a sudden turn and I began a journey that I never expected. What started as muscle aches and fatigue quickly became a battle to find answers. After months of testing and multiple medications, I was finally diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, an autoimmune disease that changed everything about how I live and work on the farm. I wanted to share my story today because I know so many of you are fighting your own health battles. There were times I thought I’d never feel like myself again. But through the help of my doctors, the right treatments, and my determination not to give up, I’m finally doing better—and I’m able to be back out here doing what I love. If you’re struggling, please don’t lose hope. Keep going, keep fighting, and never stop believing that things can get better. I also want to mention a supplement that has made a big difference for me and many others—Lubrisyn. I take it daily alongside my prescribed treatments, and it has truly helped with my joint pain and inflammation. Thank you all for the love, support, and kindness you continue to show our family. It means more than words can say. — Brooke Mrs. Cog Hill Farm --------- 🐷 Cog Hill Farm For Kids Channell: https://www.youtube.com/@FarmerJason 🐄 Everything Cog Hill Farm: https://www.coghillfarm.com/ 🥦 Harvest Right Freeze Dryers https://affiliates.harvestright.com/1056.html ---------------- **(Please note that some of the links above are affiliate links, & at no additional cost to you, I will earn a commission if you decide to make a purchase after clicking through the link)** email: brookesmith@thecoghillfarm.com #farm #womenwhofarm #farmers #animalrescue #farmpets #farmlife #livestocksanctuary #animalsanctuary
