In the orchard the fruit is starting to ripen. The first fruit is always this small delicious purple plum.
The variety is 'Early Rivers' and it is great to eat straight from the tree, or stewed, or made into crumble; it also makes good jam.
As it is the first to ripen we eat lots and lots as it is at least another two weeks before any of the other varieties are ready to pick.
