I have made lemon cordial, Moroccan preserved lemons, lemon marmalade and I have a year's supply frozen lemon juice or more. There are still 4 milk crates of them left. If refrigerated I might use half a crate over the next few months before they go rotten. There is no market for them and there are insufficient takers to give them all away. Any constructive suggestions? David No shelters, or community kitchens? You may have to go where the need is. More than a hour drive :-( D Have you tried http://www.neighborhoodfruit.com/faq ? You can register your trees and share what you have with others. A bit far, I am in Australia. I made and froze lemon curd last year. That works if you have the freezer space since you can't water bath can it. Running short of freezer space. I just froze 17 litres of orange juice as well as the lemon juice. Today we do the tangellos. Since your street isn't busy is there a place you could take the fruit to share? Would the local hardware store let you put them out front with a free sign? Sometimes people at our church will bring bags of excess fruit from their trees and members of the congregation can take what they like. Even if you don't belong to a church, there might be one willing to share your fruit with their congregation members. marcella Yes it looks like that will be the answer if nothing else turns up. D |
