This picture records our bountiful harvest of cider apples this year. This represents around half of the total crop, we've been gathering and pressing the fallen apples for a few weeks now. The striped green/red apples at the bottom are
Dabinett, the more pinky/orange ones at the top are
Harry Masters' Jersey. The handful of
Yarlington Mill and
Tremlett's Bitter apples have already been juiced.
Not a huge crop on the face of it, but considering our total harvest last year amounted to four apples, we're very pleased with the way our young orchard is developing.
