Lydford Forest Garden and River

The villagers at Lydford on Fosse created a communal fruit garden about 10 years ago, people can help themselves to the fruit.



It's still a lovely place to visit even before the fruit comes.


Gooseberries are forming.





Loads of flowers on the Blackcurrants. There are Apples, Pears and even a Medlar tree, which I make jelly from sometimes.



The river is right next to it.

 

Another lovely place by the looks of it Zig the first pic is especially great...look at all the Dandilions

 

Spot on Zigs, lovely place.

 

Zigs should have made Danilion wine out of them

 

Missed the window this year Jiffy, planning on Elderflower though.

 

we planted some Elder this year for the wildlife

 

I did that as I like lots of Elderberry Wine.

 

Hopefully if they produce lots of berrys they i may have to learn how to make wine, but will be hard for me as i'm T total , what would i do with the wine??

 

Use it for cooking!

 

Trade it for Tea.

 

I'll go for that
