TIptree Farm - Wilkin & Sons LTD
The first ‘Tiptree’ conserves were made in 1885 on the Tiptree estate and are still made here to this day. Fruit crops include strawberries, loganberries, mulberries and damsons to name but a few. Their signature fruit is the Little Scarlet strawberry, a tiny wild variety, originally brought to the UK by the Wilkin family in the early 1900's. They believe that they are unique in the world in growing this difficult crop, but it is worth it for the quality of conserve it provides.
They received our first Royal Warrant from George V in 1911 and remain Royal Warrant holders as purveyors of 'Tiptree' products to Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.
‘Tiptree’ products can now be found in over seventy countries, on luxury cruise liners, in five star hotels and on top airlines.
