    An update of the project status. I’ve been busy health issues, and been going into a slow mode. June 2 Updates I checked the ume on May 27, and this was the ongoing status.

    We had a big crop of ume this year – only around 10-15 pounds, but that’s good to me. Here are the results so far. My mom and I clashed over how to do this. She was of the “press large batches”, don’t clean too much, and salt enough school of thought. I’m of the…
