OUR FIRST HARVEST

A couple of weeks ago we had a really successful morning in the Orchard to celebrate our first harvest with about 40 people there picking and tasting in the sunshine! We are delighted with the crop this year…..nice and clean with the only damage seen from birds.
Now many more apples are ready to pick so please do go up and sample the delights of organically grown fruit, fresh from the tree. Take your children and show them that apples come from a pretty tree and not from the supermarket!
Today I took a basket of Sunset apples to Limpsfield School for them to try, and another super selection is in the Memorial stores for customers to sample.
In the Orchard there are some Sunset which are ready now plus any of the other apples. The Herefordshire Russet need another week or so. They will then be able to be picked and stored as they should last until after Christmas.
Happy Harvest to you all
