The single peach, cropped in the greenhouse this year. was ceremonially harvested and divided into seven portions for those present at the early August workday ! Apparently it was delicious. Hoping for a few more next year!

(next to it is a somewhat less attractive tomato !)
Also cropping for the first time, a Japanese wineberry (Rubus phoenicolasius), a species of raspberry native to northern China, Japan, and Korea. Apparently it is a favourite for forest gardeners.

And the basil planted by Fizz  has survived OK in the heat of the small polytunnel on site.
