| It may seem too soon to mention Christmas but here at River Cottage we like to plan ahead!
Do you dream of a festive season where your larder is full of homemade produce? Where your Christmas table is laden with a fantastic stress-free feast and your glass regularly topped up with something home-steeped? Where you give handmade edible gifts, tucking the odd jar and bottle away just for you? Or perhaps you would rather sit back, enjoy the company of friends and family in beautiful surroundings and let someone else do the cooking?
