The Jam Lady is an adorable, eclectic little shop and a must-stop when in the Eagle River area. It operates as a charming self-serve, self-pay establishment, open 24/7, where payment is made honestly via cash, check, or Venmo. The shop offers a beautiful assortment of extremely well-made and packaged jams, jellies, and local syrups, all homemade, freshly canned, and highly giftable. The selection includes authentic thimbleberry jam, a tradition for many, which is known for its quality. Visitors also find copper nuggets and northern Michigan stones. The unique, trusting experience of the unattended shop is powerful and rare, making it a wonderful local stop.
Beautiful assortment of jams & jellys. Homemade and freshly canned. Always one of my stops when in town. Plus the Jam Lady got a new sign! Keep buying local. #ShopSmall!

Such an adorable little place! The jam is authentic and yummalicious. Nothing like the processed stuff at your local market. A definite must to stop and pickup some jam and local syrup if you're in the area.
