So a few days ago we picked the last of our pea harvest. Bagged up the peas and froze them for use though out the year.
We don’t watch any TV but we decided to re watch (The good life)
With our son.
Do you remember it? Tom and Barbara who have ago at being self-sufficient in thier back garden.
Well they made pea pod wine.
Guess what we saved the pea pods from our pea harvest.
We are having ago at our own pea pod wine as well fingers crossed!
This week we’ve had frosts in the mornings and a icy cold wind.
The Hawthorn trees have lost thier tiny little green leaves.
The bright red jew like berries will start dropping soon.
So I stood at the row of Hawthorn trees in my garden. Listing to the icy wind, bird Song as I picked some hawthorn berries.
Which I hope to dry and preserve to make hawthorn tea over the winter month.
I’ve read it’s good for heart health and lowers cholesterol.
Fingers crossed it doesn’t taste to yuck 😉🤞.
