The tayberries are ready!!! They're Farmer Tod's favourite fruit and this year it's a bumper crop. Thousands of deliciously large purple fruits hanging from the bushes, just waiting to be picked! But what is a tayberry? That's a very good question! In this post I'll explain what they are and why they're such a great fruit to pick... |
All bets are off. It’s 19th June, the strawberry season is under a week old and I couldn’t tell you whether there will strawberries to pick tomorrow, let alone into July! We’ve never seen a fruit season like it: raspberries ready in mid-June, sugar snap peas so plentiful they’re carpeting the field bright green, and the strawberries… oh dear, the strawberries.
In this post I’ll clarify the current situation with our Pick Your Own fruit and veg, explain why it’s behaving so bizarrely, look at what to expect in the coming weeks and help you work out how to still enjoy a visit to the farm this summer. |
