Apple harvest

After a couple of years nursing new apple trees and losing most to birds we are delighted with our apples this year – on the trees planted in 2006 we have had a great crop of elstar apples that looked gorgeous and tasted really delicious. Quite a few were eaten straight from the trees – and they didn’t last long, but they really did taste how an apple should! I recently heard that it has been a bad year for apples in Ireland (no doubt weather related) – so feel even luckier for that.
