So many super-tasty apples this year - all from our certified organic traditionally managed orchards. Out of the 30 or so varieties that we grow, Jupiter, Blenheim Orange and Cornish Gilliflower are currently selling at The Granary in Penzance, Bosavern Community Farm near St Just and the Spar in Sennen. Check out John's description of each. You can tell how much he loves apples! ๐ŸŽ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฅฐ

Happy spring equinox everyone! Good to get mulching of apple trees and soft fruit done before the rain, along with a decent ploughing session. And pick a few more narcissi from the woodland - a beautiful March treat to keep us going.

Long time, no post - whoops! Now, the spring sunshine and rain are making everything grow, and John has discovered he can listen to audio books and cultivate on the tractor at the same time. Happy days!
