Cherry trees

This post was first published on 6/7/2018


Today I went to visit the old Cherry Tree in French's road and a new one on Akeman Street.
The neighbours on Akeman street were horrible and abusive, won't go there again.
The owner of the tree on French's road was lovely however, left him some courgettes as a thank you.
Courgettes are growing so fast in this hot weather, have started to dry them for use later in the season.

On Monday with the From Spade to Plate group we hope to make more cherry jam, so keeping fingers crossed that there will be enough cherries on Pauline' tree in the allotment and the ones I picked today to make enough for the group.

Whilst picking the cherries, I noticed that the walnut tree in Akeman Street was shedding some of its walnut, I have picked them up and put them in brine to pickle in a few weeks time.
