Around the back of nursery we have an orchard. The apples on the apple trees are the first of our fruit and vegetables to be ready to harvest. Harvest means to gather crops when they are ripe and ready to pick. We have gathered lots of apples and have been slicing, peeling, chopping and tasting them at our chopping table, playing imaginatively with them in our house corner and ‘baking’ and weighing them at the mud kitchen.
The wrapaound boys and girls made yummy apple crumbles and we are going to try making and tasting apple juice in nursery this week by squashing and squeezing them all up in the juicer.
What else could we make with the apples? Do you have any ideas?
