June in the North East sees .....
The tail-end of the very short Northumbrian asparagus season
The beginning of the soft fruit – strawberries galore!
Seasonal veg include peas, beans, broccoli, new potatoes and early tomatoes, not to mention a wide variety of salad leaves
The new lowland spring lamb will be available – and the first of the new ‘vintage’ honey should appear towards the end of the month.
The hens, ducks and geese are laying well - plenty of free range eggs to be had.
And of course - there are always some great cheeses, ham, bacon, sausages - not to mention conserves and chutneys.
