The English always made chutney- guess added vinegar not sugar- and soemtiems hot peppers- to the plums.

plums

Approach local grocery stores and make them an offer they can't refuse?

do you have a big Sunday flea market?? Lots of folks sell produce...last year a guy had a truckload of apples, scooped them out by the bushel for a good price, another fellow had a truck loaded with green bell peppers. Ours even has chicks, rabbits and even pet Florida alligators for sale. Our neighbor grows a crop of pumpkins to sell there along with his haybales and dry cornstalks for the city folks. We like to go Sundays to look around after church. I got my campfire corn popper there for $3.

Thanks, for all the ideas everyone. Looks like I'm going to have a job doing something with all my Plums also.
