Thread: Getting back to living off the land.....

@Moa Hunter "Normal" quinces make a fantastic jelly! This was the result of a good day foraging, hunter/gathering.... One goat, two barrels of comfrey to plant; 5kg (black bag) coffee grounds for the garden, 5kg quinces (I made into quince jelly) and two bags of quince cuttings to propagate.... Couldn't get the quince cuttings to take though

Often there are 'suckers' around the base of Quince trees, inspect below ground for roots and then tear them off the tree if they are rooted. They can be layered if they dont have roots. I have some here ready to graft pears onto. I like quince stewed with apple or in mixed fruit pies
