Icefever Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Yesterday we did a forage around the top field... and came back with this little lot.... Over 7 lbs of Damsons....4 lbs Blackberries....3 lbs Plums...& 3 lbs of Apples. We then set to and did 5 x 1lb jars of B-berry jam and 5 x 1/2 lb jars of Plum. Tomorrow we'll do some of the Damsons, maybe 4lbs we've given some to an old friend as she what's to make jam. We have to collet Rose hips along with Crab apples later this week....we also what to make apple leather.... Walnuts are coming along nice some are starting to drop, so they'll just be ready for Chrimbo. Ice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wade Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Joyce used to make rosehip syrup in her youth - she is looking to make some this year too. I am waiting to see what it tastes like 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
