The LLB Gang
invite us each Friday to share something of nature in one form or another... I can't think of anything better for a September post than to show you Nature providing fruits a-plenty! I told you yesterday of my visit to the Cumbria Wildlife Centre at Gosling Sike, Carlisle. The orchard was full of heritage-line apple trees, all laden with many coloured varieties. There were also pears, damsons, blackberries, and quince. In addition, the oaks were laden with acorns, the hedgerows bursting with hawberries, and rosehips...
The acorns really caught my imagination... did you know that acorns are used as a substitute for coffee? They can also be used to
make flour for baking. Rosehips can be made into a syrup and/or a jelly, which is full of vitamin C and can see you through the winter. Isn't harvest the most wonderful time?!!
It just remains to say, next week is Final Friday Feature time again!!! What do you have to post that is just that little bit extra special?
