Well, its safe to say that 2020 isn't shaping up as we planned.

We were booked into eight or nine canalside events between May and September, some familiar and some new. In addition we had plans to take the Jam Butty on tour to the north west visiting Llangollen, Chester and the River Weaver in May and June, but sadly these plans have been thrown into disarray. 

Just as we finished making our Wild Garlic based products for the season the Carona Virus struck and everything came to a standstill. One by one the events we had been planning to attend were cancelled and as I write there is little expectation of any trading activity before August. And

So, like everyone else, we are stuck.

Our stockroom is rammed full of the fruits of last year's harvest and the good thing is that preserves, by definition, do keep and we will be out and about just as soon as we can.

In the meantime, the downtime presents an opportunity to tackle the garden and plant that Mulberry Tree which will, one day, provide fruit for a much anticipated new product among our range of jams.

See you soon.
