1. Rinse the mixed berries and remove any stems. Chop the strawberries and blackberries into smaller pieces, leaving the raspberries whole.

2. Add the berries to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Mash them lightly with a potato masher so they begin to release their juices.

3. Stir in the lemon juice and honey. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring often.

4. Cook uncovered over medium-low heat for about 8 to 10 minutes, mashing occasionally, until the berries break down and the mixture thickens slightly.

5. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chia seeds until evenly distributed.

6. Let the jam stand for 5 minutes, then stir again to break up any clumps of chia.

7. Spoon the jam into clean jars and let it cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

8. Cover the jars and refrigerate for at least 1 hour so the chia seeds can thicken the jam fully before serving.
