KINGSTON PRESERVES

Welcome to my website, Kingston Preserves.

​

I love cooking & Kingston Preserves has grown out of a hobby that got a little out of control! I began by selling my jams & chutney outside my house & with encouragement from family & friends, & a small mention in Devon Life I plucked up the courage to start my business. My first foray into selling was February 2016 at Ivybridge Market & since then I haven’t looked back. I now sell regularly at local markets, food events & festivals & our local shop.

​

I am a local producer and everything is made in small batches in my kitchen. We are lucky enough to have a space for a polytunnel & greenhouse so wherever possible I use our home grown produce or I buy my ingredients as locally as I can. I also try to work with the seasons so if I run out of something you might have to wait a few months for a new batch to be made. To me this is important as in Devon we have some of the best seasonal produce available, & you can’t beat the flavour of a freshly picked tomato still warm from the greenhouse.
