Another trip to the farm, this time for plums. Plums, plums and more plums. As well as a stash of good old fashioned organic vege for the table.
Some really late raspberries and blackberries are also still available, and I know there will have to be a few more trips to the farm before pumpkin-picking season. Sweetcorn ready for picking will be a couple weeks away, and I have a lot more jam I need to make first.
Oh and that crazy dog. What trip to the farm would be complete without that silly mutt and her doggy friend joining in the fun? She thinks she's human you know.
I love plums. I was lucky to find a wild plum tree, or does that make it a damson, whilst out foraging for blackberries. So tasty. will definetly be huning down some more.

No, it could have been plum, damsons are a sub species of plum told apart by their deep purple colour. They really make delicious jam!

it's quite a basic traditional method. Insha'allah maybe I'll blog about jam some time (it seems it's coming out of my ears right now!). And I take this opportunity to wish you and your family a blessed Eid for the coming days! x
