        Jam, yes, but not until late Sept. Strawbs and rasps all get scranned. Plum jam, apple and bramble. Better start saving jars…

            I made a chili plum and apple chutney two years ago, and it was magic. But I’m still on 2 jars. My plum last year was too runny, need to follow a recipe closer this year. Maybe with some cinammon. I made loads of crumble too, it’s a mature tree with loads of fruit

              Sounds fantastic!! I think my friend added cinnamon and/or nutmeg. She also made an indian spiced chutney with the plums.

          Jam! Hope to have enough fruit to make jam in the coming years. Only planted some bushes a few months ago, and they are still very small. Enjoying having a space to grow stuff in this year (we moved). All be it small.
