@@StrivingforSelfSufficiency yeah, gardening is hard work. People need to be careful what they wish for. Still going to get an acre or so . Food shortages are coming. Keep up the good work
@@StrivingforSelfSufficiency The blackberry's will take quite a while to dry. Apples are not too bad. You will need to swap the trays around every few hours - bottom tray onto top - so that every thing get dry. With both of them, if you dry them and then stick them into a small blender (bullet type of thing) and turn them into powders, they are great for adding to porridge. I would love to try canning, but just lack the space 😞
Wish I had that much land 😢😮. Good for you 😊
@@Jeffwalker66 thank you!
Haha the berry harvest is the pleasant part of it; the maintenance of a large garden is more challenging than I expected 😔

That is quite a crop you have their Eimear, next job with be trying to preserve it all :-)
@@Lee_Proffit preservation is my next big task 😬 wish me luck haha
@@StrivingforSelfSufficiency What is the plan, or do we get a video ?
@@Lee_Proffit going to give dehydrating and vacuum sealing a go. Might give canning another go - it’s not my favourite but a useful skill to master 👍
