There is always something new to harvest on the farm. Right now, the mulberries have just started.
I will be collecting this fruit to make our very popular Mulberry Elixir. The final product is a beautiful dark purple colour and it has a lovely, rich berry taste.
This one is a local fruit called monkey cap. It has the consistency of peanut butter and is much-loved by the birds. For all bird-lovers out there, this is one to plant if want to attract all the birdies with pretty colours. The toucans like this one.
The monkey cap tree also makes a nice ornamental for those into landscaping.
Oh, and last but not least…we got our first soursop of the year. Everyone in Belize loves this fruit. I can’t give it justice by describing it but it has a kind of wet cotton-like consistency with a unique tropical fruit taste. I asked Gnome to help me describe the flavour and this is what he said:
“Well…it tastes like a soursop!”
Well, Thank-you Gnome…that was extremely helpful!!
The farm keeps on producing!!
