Currant Update 2024

Currant Update 2024

With all the rain and warm weather we have experienced this spring/summer the currant harvest appears to be a super crop for 2024. Harvest will begin July 6, which is the earliest in 22 years. The boys and myself will harvest steadily for a couple of weeks and get the crop off and frozen as quickly as we can. From there I will de-stem and prepare both the 2 Kg and 20 lb(9 Kg) pails for sale here at the farm.

Currants will be available anytime after July 26. We operate as self-serve at the farm so everyone comes whenever they want and help themselves to frozen fruit, jam and new this year our Black Currant Cordial – a concentrated black currant syrup- which can be added to many recipes and drinks or just diluted with water and ice on a hot afternoon.

I always have plenty of 2 Kg pails available at the farm but it is best to text, call or email for the larger 20 lb pail and I will reserve it for you with your name on it.

Unfortunately we do not have debit at the farm. We gladly accept cash, cheque or e-transfers (foxmoor.blake@gmail.com).
