These were busy months leading up to the Christmas rush.  A huge demand for preserves saw teams packaging up batch after batch, after careful quality control tests and labelling.

Gifts were prepared in the craft department: here hangers are being sanded down for use in peg bags, and a scarf is revealed at the end of its creative process.

We took time out to prepare and pack two shoeboxes as part of the Christmas appeal.  Teams enjoyed packing the items so that children in need could have gifts to open and enjoy this Christmas.
