Abundant Gooseberries

George in his gooseberry picking gear

I picked punnets and punnets of gooseberries on a friend's allotment.  It was totally inspiring to see how much fabulous produce he and his friend have grown this year. 
Although it was a scorching  hot day, George has his full battle gear on., long sleeves and gloves.
 My arms, in contrast, were shredded but I was rewarded with a couple of punnets of gooseberries that I have made into gooseberry crumble and gooseberry jam.
Look out for the recipes on our website.

I also loved the the sweetcorn trying to burst through the roof of the greenhouse.  Brilliant!
