Fruit update 22/7/24

We will be open noon – 5pm Tuesday (23rd July) to Friday (26th July)

We have sweet eaters – Opals and also the slightly sharper Purple Pershore plums which are excellent for freezing / jam making, as well as eating. Both varieties are now also PYO as well as ready picked.

The start of plum picking!

Plum picking starts tomorrow with opals (sweet eater) and prolifics (slightly sharper eater) being ready. There is a reasonable harvest of each but not enough for PYO, so only ready picked plums will be available at present.

We will be open tomorrow – Wednesday 17th July from 1 – 6pm

Thursday 18th July noon – 5pm

Friday 19th July noon – 5pm
