Making beetroot chutney. Used a combination of apple cider vinegar, beetroot chutney and blackberry wine in this one plus shredded the vegetables. It’s good! Watch out for the recipe on my website soon! #gardeningwithjason #allotmentlife #beetrootrecipes #chutneyrecipes #allotmentrecipes

Went to see the apple tree that inspired Newton to develop his theory of gravity at Woolsthorpe Manor. Still producing apples (Flower of Kent cookers) all these years later! #gardeningwithjason #woolsthorpemanor #theoryofgravity #isaacnewton #appletrees

The gooseberry wine is doing well. The colour is very interesting. Will have to rack it off in a few weeks. #gardeningwithjason #allotmentowner #allotmentblogger #homemadewine #winemaking

After threatening my plum tree last year, it appears to have produced a bumper crop this year. Apart from wine and jam, any ideas on what to do with them? #gardeningwithjason #growingfruit #allotmentlife #plumrecipes

This is just one gooseberry bush. I’ve got the same amount again from the two other bushes I harvested plus another 2-3 bushes to harvest. Bit overwhelmed with gooseberries! Jam anyone? #gardeningwithjason #gooseberries #gooseberryjam #allotments #growingfruit

Three strimmer batteries later, it’s looking much better with plenty of achy muscles. Amazing what a bit of work can do. The blackbirds and robins love me for it! #gardeningwithjason #allotmentblogger #allotmentgardener
