Mockingbird Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Years ago, another family (that we are still very close with) gave us plum trees. Fast forward to today, it's practically raining plums. We are giving away the plums and we still have so many that we don't know what to do with them. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+E.Worm Jimmy Subscriber¹ Posted June 11, 2020 Subscriber¹ Share Posted June 11, 2020 If you have space - freeze them. They will keep almost all nutritional value Juice will not last. But I would attempt to do something stronger as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
