Earlier this year, my and another renters plots were volunteered up to grow Barley to try to make our own beer!
The barley grew amazingly well, and one of the beds was ripened and needed harvest this weekend. We need to wait on the other bed, the grains are still filling out and drying into their final grain. The harvest effort has continued, and we've had a crazy good cherry year. We've gotten about 12 lbs of cherries off of romeo and juliet bushes. Black and red currents were both ready early, and raspberries have been going strong for a week and a bit now.
Jam, jellies, and maraschino cherries were on the list for this year, YUM! We spend the a day at the in-laws and we got to bring back a bucket of saskatoons and nanking cherries. |
