Summer Fruits

The lovely weather that we have been having these past few weeks has suddenly worked wonders for our strawberries.

We normally have an on-going battle with the local slug population as to who will get to them first but this year the dryer weather has worked in our favour and slugs are not to be seen!

We have been very encouraged by the number that are waiting to turn rosy red, so many more than we usually get.

As they are ripening, we are picking them and popping them in the fridge.

Best get some cream in the house!

All of the flowers are also doing well and my apple trees are growing teeney tiny apples at the moment.  One of best years for our garden ever!
