Had a good crop of gooseberries this year despite (or because?) of the late
spring. Last year I only had lbs. from the three bushes but this year had
12lbs. Many of the berries were smaller than usual though. Did not keep a
note of previous years but I am sure it was about the 5 to 6lb mark. A
friend who lives in Alloway, however, said that he had a worse crop this
year compared to last year.
