Tiptree - Wilkin and Sons Museum, England
Tiptree farm is the home of Wilkin and Sons hand-made jams, marmalades and curds and includes a jams shop, tea rooms and museum.
Over 50 years ago, the late John Wilkin began collecting the paraphernalia of preserve making and Essex village life.
With the opening of the museum in a renovated farm building at Tiptree, visitors can see how life used to be and how the art of preserve-making has advanced over the years at Tiptree.
