Preserves found on Canadian radio...

One of the fun things about living in Bellingham, WA is being able to listen to Canadian radio and watch Canadian TV in addition to U.S. entertainment and news media.  Through one such experience, I heard about these artisanal culinary preserves from a farm in Langley, BC -- Vista D'Oro Farms. I don't know, I guess I was taken by some of the names of the preserves, e.g. turkish fig with walnut wine or apricot tarragon & riesling. And I liked what the woman from the farms said you could do with the preserves. Anyway, I drove there and I like what I found.  Preserves like Green Walnut and Grappa on a cheeseboard with great cheese...fun.
