Alison Batchelor makes jams using techniques learnt from her mother, while husband Barry makes the chutney. Both are produced on a small, handmade scale – the chutneys never more than fifty jars at once, jams not more than seven kilos of fruit at a time. Most of their ingredients are foraged from their garden or from local hedgerows, or are bought from local farms, and pectin is never added unless absolutely necessary.
