Hi guys

Just wondered if any black Country folk know of any hot spots for damson trees that haven't yet been foredged.

All my usual spots have already been raided.

Anywhere rural would be great as we could take the kids out for the bank holiday for family scrumping

We don't mind a bit of a drive out.

If your going for a drive maybe the supermarket?

Have you joined a foraging group local to yourself? Its something i would like but i never seem to have the time and something always pops up scuppering our plans.

Among the trees in Stray Head Banks, there are rich pickings to be had – you'll find crab apples, which are no good for eating but whose juice can be transformed into a spicy preserve.

Newly planted on gently undulating land overlooking a local reservoir, this wood has plenty to offer. If you're there when the leaves are coming out, have a hunt for hawthorn and small-leaved lime.
