Newest batch of CDs are finally here. All orders are shipping now (including to US).

Despite the delays and associated headaches, I'm super proud of this batch and delighted to finally have the physical CDs out in the world. Hope they find good homes and sound ears x

A gammy summer has left us with a greenhouse full of slow-to-ripen tomatoes. Another way to look at this is as a massive crop for green tomato pickles. The frost told me it was time to pick them all.
I've also started pickling unripe tomatoes recently. #farmerinthecity
