Check out this unusual little plum in my Food Forest. It’s such a special and delicious fruit that isn’t available in stores, so you might consider growing it in your garden for a really extraordinary culinary experience.

Shropshire resident here. Although it is a type of plum they're simply called damsons (you're pronouncing it demsons). They grow profusely here, often in hedgerows where cottages once stood. My go-to dishes are as a crumble or charlotte & especially in Chinese plum sauce
I live in a rural setting - and all day I hear tractors (the dairy farm across the river is the noisiest establishment I've ever lived near). Farms have a wealth of different equipment, and there is never a day without loud machinery on the go.
We also get commercial jets, pleasure flights and private helicopters fly over. Military aircraft, forbidden from flying over built up areas, conduct low level practice flights over the emptier countryside and often carry loads between airfields.
My 3 neighbours use lawnmowers, strimmers and chainsaws regularly. One of my neighbours often has his car radio playing out loud in the street - as he renovates 2nd-hand cars for a living. He and his family drive up and down the track all day like it's a main road. My husband renovates motorcycles and is a blacksmith - he's not the only one around here either.
The Forestry Commission drives lorries back and forth as they cut down plantations of pines all along the valley. It is common to hear chainsaws and logging equipment working at a distance.
Believe me, it is no quieter out here than it is anywhere else. You have to be out there before 5am to experience any real notion of peace.
Fantastic information on the Shropshire Damson...and then I bought one and a wild bullace...thank you!
I love that you made this video the day I planted a Damson plum! So cool!
Great for jam, when I was a kid, my grandfather had about a dozen different plum tree hybrids in his Chicken run, along with a couple of mulberry trees and the odd fig tree and some citrus, oranges and mandarins, when ever he wanted to extend his orchard, he extended his chicken run. He practised deep litter chicken run and re-arranged the litter regularly
The BEST jam
This is great timing for me! I have a plum that got chewed up hard by the deer last year and it's dry now so perhaps i could get in there and tidy up its habit as it recovers. Thanks!
Makes an unbelievably great wine. In fact was a favorite in England until the early 1900s. After the Roman vineyards in England died out during the mini ice age damson wine was quite popular.
Also makes a great plum apple crisp. And also a great sauce to stew pork, beef or chicken in.
I live in a rural area, all kinds of nature sounds. Also all those machines you mentioned plus we get to play the game "is that fireworks or firearms" a lot 🤣🤣
Nice set up, I just got one of these trees

Italian vs Brooks vs Stanley vs Dameson? Sweetness
Damsons are sour and flavorful. Stanley and Italian and Brooks =sugary sweet.
Looks like a plum worth looking at! Thank you! Question you mentioned pruning in dry weather but that you were going to wait to prune the leader until later. Is that simply because it will interfere with the harvest? And about long should it be dry weather before and after pruning?
Could I have a piece of the cuttings or some of the seeds?
Can you please tell me the name of your golden raspberry that gives fruit twice a season?
Fall Gold! :)
A darn rabbit almost killed my damson plum, I got to it just in time to protect it before they completely girdled it.
How is the damson for fresh eating?
A little bitter! The skin has a LOT of flavor. I definitely prefer it cooked

Btw, it’s pronounced “Shrop - shear”
I'm sat here after 8 hours of industrial farming equipment driving me to distraction and I'm here to say don't move to the countryside. We have loads of damsons in our garden btw
