Ontario grapes The rich tiavor and color of Ontario blue grapes have not only made these grapes favorites of processors of wines,, juice and preserves. but also have Made them a very special treat to enjoy at home. They are great for eating out of hand and for making juice, jam, jelly and baked goods. Look for Ontario blue grapes during September and-until about the first week of October. Food specialists, at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food, point out that Ontario blue .grapes are special in 4r-tether way, too. They are easy to freeze and can be used in place of fresh blue grapes in recipes.. So when you come home with baskets or bushels of blue grapes. you don't have to start making' your favorite grape jams, pies and juice right away. Instead, you can , freeze large quantities of blue grapes in a hurry, then draw on this supply as you want to make jams or desserts tater in the year. In refering to those who were retiring Rev. H..
