Our story

It’s all down to my daddy! He was the jam maker in our family. 

Growing up in the war every little bit of produce from the kitchen garden was jammed, pickled or bottled, and he learnt to make jam and prune the fruit trees.

From the moment I had my first garden that’s the direction I took, finally starting Dodger on 1st April 2020. I was a cook too – that’s in my maternal DNA.

I also have access to a wonderful old walled garden in East Lothian where I use any surplus fruit that would otherwise go to waste. Additional fruit is sourced locally where possible and Seville oranges from Spain.
