Homemade jams, honey, and marmalades
Mary and Michael McGrath at a family celebration
Mary and Michael McGrath, who started it

Mary made the jam.Michael mindedthe rest.

Mary and Michael McGrath started making jam in their kitchen in Melleray in 1985. Mary signed each jar as a point of pride, and her name, her townland and her phone number went on every label. Quality was the hallmark of the brand: jam like your mother used to make. When they retired, Mary and Michael were delighted to partner with Country Style Foods, who were honoured to continue the tradition. Same recipes, same labels, same jam.

“Traditional, local, simple, pure jam. Delicious as is and perfect for baking!”— the family’s own promo card

That’s the story. Here’s the jam.
