We’ve been buying organic and/or byodynamic garlic for quite a while now, so the prices for a home delivery of a kilo of Patrice Newell’s Garlic wasn’t as frightening as it might be if you’re used to the (irradiated, Chinese) supermarket stuff. It’s excellent garlic, with a pungent, intense flavour that the imported crap can’t approach (that’s it in the picture in my last post).

Jam, yeah, I can give or take. I've still got jars of Meyer lemon marmalade from the last place we lived in and love it. Shall glaze tarts etc when my jelly's put up. Lovely post, Zoe.

I got two. Lucky you. Bastard parrots ate all our plums over night. What will you do with your crabapples? Mine are just about to turn pinkish. I'll miss the fruit trees when we (inevitably) move onto the next rental place and wanna take at least <em>something</em> from here with me. Four pears, eh? I got two. Lucky you.

It's a shame about the tomatoes. You did better than me though. I over-wet the germination box and didn't get any tomatoes at all! We haven't got our uggs out yet, but it won't be much longer I fear.
