A pound of cherries from the tree in the garden.
I'm pretty sure it's just a wild cherry (the tree is large, and the fruit are small and not terribly numerous), but it tastes sweet enough to eat raw (which is just as well, really, as they are unsuitable for cooking due to being cling-stone and therefore impossible to pit).
My first tomato - yellow perfection- reminded me of how much stronger a flavour you get from a home grown tomato. Unfortunately I seem to be getting much more blossom end rot than usual on my black icicles. Usually get the odd one but had signs of it on more than half of one of the plants. Took them off as still time for more tomatoes to develop.
Loganberries (nearly done now), gooseberries, blackcurrants, and the last on my first early Potatoes - I've averaged over 1kg per plant, which is pretty good for first earlies.
Also picked the first of my french beans.
