Morrison & Co Preserves Welcome to Morrison & Co. Preserves, where tradition meets quality in every jar. At Morrison & Co. We are now sharing these products with you.

Based on family recipes handed down from generations before, we craft small-batch jams, pickles, and sauces using locally sourced produce from Ontario & Western Quebec. Preserves, we believe the best recipes are passed down through generations. Our jams, jellies, pickles, and sauces come straight from the kitchens of my grandmother, Aunt Marlene, and mother Gail – women known not only for their passion for preserving local foods but also for bringing people together through their love of cooking. Inspired by their legacy, I’ve spent over 25 years perfecting these family recipes, ensuring that each batch is handcrafted with care, just like they used to. Using locally farmed produce from Ontario and Western Quebec, our products capture the vibrant flavors of the harvest. Everything we make is made by hand in small-batches, so we can ensure the highest quality, authenticity, and freshness. When you open a jar of Morrison & Co., you're not just tasting preserves, you're savoring a tradition and a deep connection to the land. My name is Scott, and I'm the "& Co" part of the name – the keeper of these treasured recipes. With every jar, I’m proud to share the flavours and history that have helped shaped my family memories. Preserves, where every jar is made with love, tradition, and a little bit of history. Thank you for being a part of the journey.

What a beautiful way to wrap up the Parkdale Night Market season 🤍

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Parkdale Harvest Night Market tonight, and to everyone who made the Parkdale Night Market part of their weekly routine this season. Whether you joined us every week or stopped by once to say hello, share a conversation, see a familiar face, and pick up a few of your favourite products, your support meant so much to us.

The Parkdale Night Market is such an important part of the community, and the team behind it has done an incredible job creating a welcoming space for local vendors and neighbours.

Final episode of our Meet the Summer Co-op Student series 🤍

In this video, we sit down with Victor, “Victa,” Victa our Digital Marketing and Communications co-op student from Algonquin College, to look back on a busy, creative, and memorable summer at Morrison & Co. Preserves.

Victor was the person behind the camera, creating videos for Instagram and Facebook, helping launch our TikTok channel, and capturing the kitchen moments, market days, farmers, products, and people that make up Morrison & Co. Preserves.

If you noticed us showing up online more often this summer, with new energy, better photos, more videos, and a little more personality, Victor had a lot to do with that. Over four months, our following grew by 500%.

We’re thrilled that Victor will be staying on with us part-time as he continues his studies and builds his own brand, Create More Media Create More . We’ve loved supporting and encouraging him as he takes the next step toward building something of his own, and we’re proud to be in his corner 🤍

His favourite jar from our shelves? Apple & Hibiscus Jelly 🍎🌺

A huge thank you to everyone who followed along, stopped by our market table, shared kind words online, and supported our business this summer. You made this experience what it was.

Meet Edouard, one of the students who helped make this summer special at Morrison & Co. Preserves 🤍

As a Culinary Arts and Food Science student at Algonquin College, Edouard spent the summer working alongside us in the kitchen and learning the many moving parts behind every jar.

From labelling and regulations to production and recipe development, he got to experience the process from the inside out. In his words, “I’m learning at the side of Scott… almost everything from labelling, regulations, making sure the development process goes well. It’s been amazing.”

Students bring fresh ideas, honest questions, and a real willingness to learn. Edouard brought all three, along with plenty of energy to the kitchen.

And his favourite product? Our Peach & Earl Grey Jam 🍑

For someone who spent the summer helping test and develop recipes, that is a recommendation worth listening to.

This is part two of our Meet the Summer Co-op Student series. Come back on October 3rd to see the “meet the man behind the camera” pt. 3 video, where we introduce another one of our incredible summer students. More stories from the team are coming soon 👀

Why bring summer students into a small preserves company? Because they make the business better 🤍

For the second summer in a row, we welcomed students into Morrison & Co. Preserves to work in the kitchen, behind the camera, at the markets, and behind the scenes.

Students bring curiosity, fresh ideas, honest questions, and perspectives that challenge us to think differently. They also bring skills that have made a real difference, especially when it comes to social media, content, and telling the stories behind our products.

But it is about more than what they contribute to the business. It is about creating a space where students can learn, try new things, build confidence, and experience what it takes to grow a business. From production days in the kitchen to busy market mornings, their energy and ideas became an important part of our summer.

In this first video, we share why we continue to bring summer students into Morrison & Co. Preserves and what they bring to the table.

Keep an eye out for Ed’s video, coming October 1st👀

A family favourite is back in the kitchen ✨

Gail’s Piccalilli, our beloved green tomato chutney, has been made from Scott’s mom Gail’s recipe for over 50 years. Made with green tomatoes, onions 🧅, green peppers 🫑, brown sugar, vinegar, and a hint of cinnamon, it is the perfect balance of sweet, savoury, and tangy.

We’ve been bringing it to our farmers’ markets, but it has been so popular that we had to head back into the kitchen and make more 🤍

This is more than a chutney. It is a piece of family tradition, made to be enjoyed with roast meats, grilled cheese, meat pies, and all your favourite comfort foods.

Find Gail’s Piccalilli at our upcoming farmers’ markets or order online at MorrisonPreserves.com.

Bring home a jar of this 50-year-old family favourite while the latest batch lasts 🍅🥄
