We often advise visitors to pick up a jar of Little Scarlet Jam as a souvenir or gift from Colchester. You can buy it all around the world, but it tastes even better here for some reason.
Around 850 acres of Essex farmland produce Grade I fruits, including medlars, mulberries & quinces. Tiptree is best known for its Little Scarlet strawberries, grown only on the ‘Tiptree’ estate #TiptreeTakeover @tiptree

Our recycling crews are putting a sticker on glass/can boxes this week to remind those with a kerbside collection that items will need to be separated into two boxes from your next Blue Week collection. You can use your own box (not cardboard). #BeABetterRecycler @loveessexuk

Everyone must see that keeping dog poo off our streets, sportsgrounds and green areas is a good thing. There are plenty poo bins throughout our beautiful borough. Please - pick it up and bin it 👍 #Colchester #BetterColchester
