Pick Your Own

Story location: Home / Blog / food_and_drink /
23/Jul/2006

This morning we drove over to the Malt Kiln Farm for the pick your own fruit. It was a bit soggy underfoot because of the rain (after weeks of unrelenting hot weather we finally had rain yesterday). The paths between the bushes were overgrown with weeds so I imagine the fruit is probably organic and pestcide or herbicide free.

The raspberries were very ripe - they came off the plant with no effort at all. We also got some Tayberries (which are a cross between a raspberry and a blackberry). They look like a longer darker raspberry and taste similar to a blackberry.
