Garden Grow your own hedge Jo Arnell explains how to ensure you have pick of the crop at home... The hedgerows are packed with deliciousness right now. There are elderberries for sauces and wine, rosehips for syrups and cordials, wild plums, apples, cobnuts and sloes. A veritable forager’s feast awaits at the edges of fields and roadways and it can be great fun heading out to harvest free food, giving added purpose to autumn walks and satisfying our inner hunter-gatherer. If you would like all the joys of a hedgerow harvest without the muddy trek out into the fields, or a hedge with added purpose, why not grow one of your own? Vertical allotments When is a hedge not a hedge? When it’s a vertical allotment! If you haven’t got room for a fruit or vegetable garden, growing upwards, rather than outwards could be the solution. Choose the right plants – apples, pears, plums and blackberries and you could even grow a linear orchard. Most of these are trees, but they can be pruned to become more of a hedge and will stay fairly neat and well behaved – as long as you keep them regularly pruned. Go nuts Hazels and filberts (collectively known as cobnuts) can be grown as part of a mixed hedge, or on their own as more of a nuttery. An additional benefit to the nuts are the nice straight stems that grow when hazel is coppiced. These provide sturdy plant supports, wigwams or bean poles in the vegetable garden. Hazel within a mixed native hedge will also help to support local wildlife (unfortunately this does include hungry squirrels), as nuts are packed full of nutritious fat and protein, ripening in the autumn just before creatures such as dormice go into hibernation. Cobnuts provide a valuable source of high energy food to help them get through the winter. Sloe, sloe, quick-quick sloe If you want to establish a fast-growing hedge, then blackthorn (sloes are the fruit), or hawthorn – commonly called quickthorn – will rapidly establish and knit together into a thorny barrier. Both hawberries and sloes are edible. It is a bit of a process making the haws edible (they seem to be stuffed with sawdust and need much straining through muslin), but sloes slip easily into gin… (see recipe below). Sloe gin Pick enough sloes to half fill a clean Kilner jar, about 1lb. Prick all over or put in the freezer overnight. Put in jar with 4oz granulated sugar. Fill jar with gin and stir well, seal and leave for at least 6-8 weeks, gently shaking jar from time to time. Strain through muslin into clean bottles. It improves with keeping. 133 surrey-homes.co.uk
