This afternoon pupils at Portpatrick Primary were delighted to be invited up to Dunskey estate to help Chef Chris make some apple crumble using foraged apples from the trees in the walled garden.<\/p>\n

First, we had to pick the apples. Although this was harder than it looked for the average 3 1\/2\u00a0 ft tall 5 year old! Luckily some of the older pupils were on hand to help. Mrs Baker even produced the most spectacular “apple picking device” we had ever seen.<\/p>\n
