When I'm not on my bike, you'll find me in my organic-ish garden in #Cumbria. Favourite plants? Wisteria, hellebores, peonies, philadelphus...

5 Jul 3018 • The #gooseberries are not going to get any bigger without some rain and none is forecast in the near future, so it must be gooseberry and elderflower sorbet time 😊 #gyo

First year mine have fruited Jacqueline. Some are starting to turn red -should I wait for them all to turn red before picking? I love gooseberry tart and cream 😍

It is Jane. I think it’s something to do with how much fibre they have, they make a sorbet with the texture of ice cream 🍦😊 @pelly

Mine aren’t that type and won’t ever go red. I suppose it depends how tart you like them Nicola *pardon the pun 😉 @jendren
