ᐅ Garden Photos Chat Corner

I thought a garden chat and photo thread would be a good idea.
This way, we have a space to share current pictures and discuss dandelions and other plants.

We ate until we were completely full… nicely served with milk, pudding, or vanilla sauce. Easily 1.5 kg (3.3 lbs) or more went down per day. Then I made jam. Not that much… we prefer sour cherry or currant. A lot also went into the freezer… whole fruits and many pureed into puree in small portions (using ice cube trays) and as “popsicles.” Now two large drawers are fully packed. And the strawberry cakes… there were quite a few of those. The neighbors were happy at first… of course, they got some too. So far, nothing has really gone bad… and I’m not tired of it yet. When I pass by the garden bed, I just have to sneak a taste again 🙂

Now at least we know why the strawberry farmers are complaining ;-)

Well, the farmers are supposed to sell strawberries at a loss. One farmer had to sell 500 grams (1.1 pounds) for 1.2 euros.

A fruit farmer in the area publicly plowed up a strawberry field 🤨

I assume this is the one I read the article about.
Hats off.
