If you care about how things were made, not just how they look, then this connects you to an old craft tradition. Harris Tweed originated in the early 19th century as a home industry when crofters wove cloth by hand for their own use and for local exchange.

Rather than being a symbolic tool of the aristocracy's control over land and animals, Shetland native breeds were a way that Shetland crofters could survive the exploitation of the lairds. They cost little to keep while providing crofters with essential resources.

Not all legends are written, Some are distilled.

- = * Auchen Craigmhor na Brae * = -

Distilled only on leap years using water drawn from a spring that emerges briefly beneath the shadow of Craigmhor. Our peat is hand-cut by descendants of the original crofters from our beginnings in 1693.

Great to see.
If you can't find local jams and spreads have a look at Crofters Organic, made in Ontario.
It is all I have been using for years.
Independent grocer this morning... Frenchs ketchup is getting low. But Hienz is struggling.
Smuckers is keeping the shelves overstock, shoppers are buying local made jams! Kraft dressings are keeping the shelving warm,awesome!
