No question blackberries and blueberries are a must; encourage the kids, what better way to get them to eat fruit than have them blue mouthed for a couple of hours. Courgette and fennel are at their best, combine them raw in a olive oil and lemon salad. Get the last of your new potatoes, simply steamed with some grilled halibut. Basil, yes it should be seasonal, and only in July and august where the sun has intensified those delectable flavours.
