Jam Making Workshops

We have devised a programme of preserving workshops aimed at the complete beginner - join us in the heart of the lovely Leicestershire countryside and spend a day learning the preserving and jam making techniques of your choice.

We shall cover jam making, chutneys and pickles, sauces, curds - and some seasonal delights later in the year, ideal for Christmas presents.

The classes will be held in beautiful surroundings and you will be welcomed with coffee and biscuits while we all introduce ourselves. The groups will be no more than eight and will be completely hands-on - what you make you will be able to take home.

There will be a break for a delicious lunch, served in the Orangery, when you will have time to relax and chat about jam and, well, jam! In the afternoon we will finish off the preserves and spend some time exploring ideas for presentation and labelling and there will be plenty of opportunity for discussion and questions.

Why not get a group of friends together and make a day of it? Or perhaps you are getting married? We will be offering the opportunity to book a course for you and your friends to come an make wedding favour preserves. Send us a sample of your colour scheme and we will make sure we bring appropriate decorations for you to finish off the jars. Everything you need will be provided - including the bubbly!
