Sustainability at Heart: How England Preserves Stays Green and Delicious

At England Preserves, our passion for quality jam is matched only by our commitment to sustainable practices. We believe that the tastiest fruits, picked fresh from our local British farms, should also be the gentlest on the environment. From sourcing to packaging, every step of our process is guided by a sustainable philosophy.

Locally Sourced, Carbon-Conscious Ingredients

We start with the best fruit, sourced from neighbouring farms across the UK. By working closely with local farmers, we not only support the British agricultural community but also minimise the distance our ingredients travel. This commitment to nearby sourcing ensures our jams are fresh, delicious, and lower in carbon footprint. With each jar, you’re enjoying more than just a preserve—you’re helping support local businesses and foster a more sustainable food system.

Repurposed Packaging for a Greener Tomorrow

As part of our sustainability efforts, we repurpose the fruit boxes that bring our produce into sustainable packing materials. Each box that might otherwise be discarded is carefully transformed to protect your jars, ensuring they arrive safely while reducing our environmental impact. And when it comes to the jars themselves, we use only recyclable glass, avoiding single-use plastics entirely. This means that every part of your purchase can be reused, repurposed, or recycled—closing the loop for an eco-friendly experience.

Bicycle Couriers for London Deliveries

For most of our wholesale deliveries across London, we partner with Pedal Me, a courier service that uses bicycles instead of trucks or vans. This unique partnership allows us to further reduce our carbon emissions, providing a clean and efficient way to deliver our products to the doorsteps of London's finest hotels, restaurants, bakeries, and shops. Each delivery is made without the noise, pollution, or carbon footprint of traditional vehicles, supporting a cleaner, greener London.

Sustainability in Every Spoonful

Our commitment to sustainability doesn’t stop at the final product—it’s woven through every step of our process. By keeping our packaging plastic-free and partnering with eco-friendly businesses, we aim to make a positive impact on the environment while delivering preserves that bring a smile to everyone who enjoys them. With every spoonful of England Preserves, you’re tasting the difference that thoughtful, sustainable choices can make.
