Eddy @edantjam.bsky.social · 01/10/20261.5kg of ripe cherry toms and 750g of unripe. Making a green tomato chutney and thinking about what to do with the ripe ones. Have already dehydrated a couple kg of them over the last month so thinking I might make a sauce. 000
Eddy @edantjam.bsky.social · 13/09/2026Been in the garden picking damsons, a few windfall apples (will do a proper pick next week when I can do something with them) and cherry tomatoes. Loads more tomatoes to ripen, so they will either do that or become green tomato chutney 010
