We’re trying so hard to use it all! The damson trees are laden, so much so that we’ve lost whole boughs of them that have just snapped with the weight …… the apple trees have provided a feast for this years incredible wasp invasion … and still we need to pick them ….. the plum tree has yielded an enormous amount for the first time ever ….. and we haven’t even started blackberrying this year! It’s been so wet, I guess …… although sadly it does’t seem that the fruit has ripened properly, and we have lots and lots of green tomatoes again this year. So, the upshot of all this – Damson Wine, Damson Gin, Damson Jam …. Plum Jam, Stewed Plums … Apple Sauce, Apple Pies, Green Tomato and Apple Chutney (like last year!). Anyone else got any good ideas????!!!!
