Teenager builds successful jam business using his gran’s recipes

A teenager who has been making his gran’s jam recipes since the age of 14 is now inundated with orders from as far away as America. Owen Foster, 18, started Owen’s Angus Jams from his mum’s kitchen when he was just 14, and is now producing thousands of jars a year for shops, cafes, restaurants and even a luxury castle. He was inspired by his gran, Joyce Morrison, 69, and asked her if she would teach him to make homemade jam, using natural ingredients and traditional methods. The first batch all sold out within a week, at £3 per jar.
