A Jar Full of Christmas

When Rose returns to Lake Placid to inherit her late mother's house, she finds more than memories on the old porch — she reconnects with childhood friend Summer and runs into Everett, an old flame whose easy charm still stirs something in her. As they sift through keepsakes and recipes, a forgotten jam recipe becomes the heart of a plan to rally the town and raise funds for the struggling church. Small-town winter streets, cozy kitchen scenes, and the sting of past choices set the stage for laughter, gentle sparks, and quiet reconciliation.

Together the trio transforms the kitchen into a community hub, hosting tastings and holiday events that bring neighbors together and revive long-dimmed hopes. Along the way, they learn that healing often looks like forgiveness, second chances, and the simple sweetness of shared traditions. Warm, earnest, and sprinkled with seasonal cheer, the film celebrates the power of family recipes to mend hearts and keep a town’s spirit alive through the holidays.
