OK, maybe the title is a little mis-leading as I guess strictly speaking we didn’t actually ‘grow’ the crop ourselves, but the food came off our land so in a sense it is ‘home-grown’
. I’m referring of course to blackberries! The kids had a great time at the weekend picking some blackberries from the garden. Fortunately they didn’t have to go very far as there is a large bramble just by the patio, and another one just next to the stable (before it got cut down anyway!).

Our First Home-Grown Crop!!
Tuesday, September 30th, 2008Father’s Day Reading
Sunday, June 15th, 2008I’m very excited – I just got my first ever books on growing your own fruit and vegetables! One is by Alan Titchmarsh, ‘The Kitchen Gardener’ and the other by a chap called John Harrison, ‘Vegetable Growing Month by Month’.
I have only just skimmed them quickly but they both look great! Cannot wait to start putting them into practice.
