Damson Day Tickets

Join me to celebrate the fast and furious Damson Plum season at Sweetgum Cottage in Hunua! The plums are now ripe for the picking which means it's time to make damson jam (the best plum jam there is), damson gin, damson chutney, damson paste and other delicious damson goodies. 

This Saturday, February 17, from 10am-2pm, you're invited to come along and spend the day in my Hunua cottage garden, have a nosy around my renovated colonial cottage, feast on homemade scones with lashings of whipped cream and jam, watch me demonstrate how to preserve like a modern housewife - and then take home a free autographed copy of my book Damson: From Hedgerow to Harvest. 

There will also be damson preserves available to purchase (eftpos is available). Bring your friends and enjoy a lovely day out in the country. Tickets are limited.  

The address is 2495 Hunua Road, next to Camp Adair. (Not my old garden at Foggydale Farm.) Look for the special event signs; there's plenty of parking in our paddock.
