These bins were totally filled and I still have another load to grab from the community orchard. I had to pick the ones that were weighing down branches without the potential for growing well. They’re not ripe yet but are usable and I didn’t want to dump any I could save. I also have like 50kg of semi-ripe plums to pickle and turn into wine. The apple butter will go with some homemade bread.

    Thanks for the reply, this is also the first year I do this, I have half a dozen trees, and other years they barley had any fruit. But this year they were quite productive so I made a few jars. Since you seem to have a lot of fruit, I hope you can experiment liberally and make good pickled plums and wine.
