Father picking enough for supper 
where is the cream to go with them? 
Tuesday 11th May 2010 Today picked 2.300kilos of lovely juicy strawberries and managed to make some lovely jam in a Jam maker that I had invested in! well worth the money. 
By June all strawberries were finished either frozen or made into jam. The plants are being taken out of the A frame and planted into pots of perlite to get rooted runners ready for next year. Salad and herbs are now going into the A frame for autumn and winter. 
Here we now have sage, tarragon, lettuces,basils, mizuna,sorrel,spinach and mustard.
