Even if you dont have green fingers there are some things we can all do. I love the taste of Summer and one way to capture it is through Elderflower cordial.Its easy to make and it keeps for ages. All you have to do is to get a load of Elder flowers. Mix in a big container with water , lemons sliced and citric acid.Mix everyday and leave for about a week. Sorry i forgot the sugar. We dont use white sugar but a brown soft sugar that is not so processed. To get the quantltles just do a google search. After a week it just needs filtering and bottling. Keep in freezer for months. Its really refreshhing and great at Christmas when summer is just a distant memory. The taste of Summer, Elderflower cordial.You can also make Elderflower champagna which is not alchoholic but onle lasts for a while but its really bubbly and so refreshing when its hot, like this Summer. In the garden we are on our second seed sowing of carrots, beetroot, Mange Tout, Salad leaves, Corgettes, Coriander, Swiss chard. Just keep it all going and extend your season for as long as possible. This is worth it because we are worth it, fresh vegetables is an opulence. And then soon in Autumn we will be sowing for next spring and overwintering and also Christmas fresh new potatoes. keep gardening folks, Love Dusyanta dasa
