New at the farm
 We now have something new for you to try at our
farm. Itıs strawberry jam, and we think that itıs excellent.
Because we had a very heavy crop of strawberries during the
summer, and were not quite sure what to do with all of them, we
decided to try freezing some. This worked very well, and so we
are now making jam from our frozen strawberries. Pots are
available in our farm shop, or if you would prefer to make it
using your own recipe, we also have frozen strawberries
available in bags of about four lbs. at £1.00 per lb.
We also hope to have some plum jam available in the near future.
