What is a preserve?
Well, the word preserve can mean a few things. In general it means to keep something for a long period of time. A preserve can be like an Animal Preserve... a place where animals can go to be safe from hunters, and where people are trying to protect (preserve) them. If your grandmother makes preserves, that is usually jam or jelly that is made from fruit (making fruit into preserves is a way of keeping the fruit preserved... so it won't go bad).
