    Juicy Fruits

    Season 1 Episode 4 - Aired 4/28/2010

    In this season finale, ginger hotty Alys milks her strawberries and shows us how to make courgette wine using only a milk bottle and her Agent Provacateur thongs. Fruit, particularly fruit like raspberries and blueberries, can be a costly luxury bought from the shops, yet nothing could be simpler to grow. You plant them and then just sit back and wait. With most of her garden devoted to growing vegetables, Alys still manages to squeeze in some juicy fruits alongside her mature apple tree. As well as enjoying them for breakfast, Alys preserves their flavour by making jams, tangy fruit leathers and sweet dried apple rings.
