My latest video is once again centred on the village of Holme Lacy - but a stone’s throw from my new house and laden with cider heritage. Or in this case perry heritage.
I explore the intriguing story of the Holme Lacy perry pear tree. In 1790 it was recorded as covering 3/4 of an acre and producing 5-7 tonnes of pears per year. What makes this possible is the tree’s unique growing habit…..
Join me on a hot and sweaty summer’s day in the Herefordshire countryside as I delve back into the history books to tell another wondrous story.
