Homemade preserves
Autumn is good time to stock your cupboards with homemade preserves to enjoy over the months ahead. If you have a glut of homegrown produce or are able to buy seasonal produce at a good price then all the better.
Homemade jams and chutneys are far tastier than their shop bought equivalents, and usually last much longer too so long as the jars have been cleaned and sterilised. They are also a great homemade gift idea.
