Morning of Joy and sorrow
So this morning, I had my mum's help with the blanching, so off I went to gather the harvest.

Half the blackcurrants weighing-in. In total I got 2lb of fruit.
Unfortunately I discovered that some of my cabbages had a caterpillar that had borrowed its way into the hearts of my cabbages, the caterpillar is brown in colour and I think its the cabbage moth caterpillar, but they are not fit for my dinner plate, but the ducks had fun nibbling the cabbages to get the caterpillars, so next year I am going to have to be some netting if i want to keep growing brassicas.
