First Apples.

We had our first cropping this year of "Beauty of Bath" apples. A respectable very early crop so very pleased. We took forty pounds to the Mart which sold in no time . The spoilt apples will be pressed this weekend along with other windfalls for an early bit of cider. This variety are not reputed to be of the best flavour but they are really quite good methinks. They also dont keep well at all. We may have a few to sell next week if they have not all fallen by then.

That was an impressive amount of apples for selling. Are your apples a smaller size than normal because of the dry weather or is it just ours this year? There are a few on the trees but just small.
