Apples galore |
The weight of apples snapped one of the branches off this tree yielding half a barrow of fruit... |
We've had maybe eight barrow loads of windfall apples from the orchard so far which have helped to feed the pigs, who love them |
We're developing these large pig feeding beds with two apple trees each so the pigs can feed themselves at least some of the time |
The beds will be mini forest gardens, here we're starting ground cover of mustard and facelia which worked really well in the pig field |
Damsons everywhere too - love that velvety, dusty finish on them - sadly three-quarters of them are out of reach... |
...still plenty to make wine with though - I hear that damson wine is one of the best too, sort of like a really good port |
