chrisjpainter Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 Good to see the apple's been correctly cut too. Sliced is the way, none of the block chunks business! It's been a really good crop down here, too. It looked like the drought was gonna stuff it, but one shower of rain and they bushes just went mad. Not many picking, which is sad, but it meant all the more for us! Jam and crumble galore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The carrots went mental this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walker570 Posted October 2, 2022 Report Share Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) Your more than welcome. It grieves me to see so many lying under the trees when they are good eating. I am amazed these days how many defer picking and using those fallings, of course they have not been sprayed with wax to make them permanently shiny. A good swill under the tap and they are good to go, just cut out any bruised bits. The joy of fallings is they are super ripe normally unless shaken by a storm.. Still lots of Brambleys and Spartan for later in the year but anyone even looking at my Russets is in serious trouble. I peel slice and freeze those for pies and crumbles in the new year when tasty fruit is in short supply. I do believe they are the tastiest apple. TO ADD after whacking three tree rats under my walnut tree at 7am this morning I then pickd 295 walnuts which had been shaken off by the storm coming through on Friday and they will add flavour to those russets.
