The Rose hips were in someone’s garden in Truro or I might have picked them to make syrup.
Before the show, Estha’s Story, at Heartlands this evening, there was singing and cake in the Diaspora garden. The cakes were magnificent! All made by Little Crumbs and decorated with edible flowers.
The show was amazing! Yskynna, the aerial dance company and the singers combined to tell the story of a Cornish Bal maiden and the audience loved it. Click on any photo in the gallery for a closer look.

There’s a good recipe here https://www.rivercottage.net/recipes/rosehip-syrup
Rose hips have loads of Vitamin C in them. 🙂

It was! especially when the wind gusted – well worth seeing. If you do, go 45 mins before the advertised start time and go into the Diaspora Gardens for a treat – and I don’t mean the cake or the singing! 🙂
