The first blackberries I noticed this season at the edge of the field by the Belle Sherman Elementary School
An afternoon snack.
The first non-eaten blueberries were picked and more black caps today.
First berries of the season! https://www.allforgardening.com/1353122/first-berries-of-the-season-3/ #berries
#RedCurrants are ready to harvest & eat.
Yellow #raspberries are almost ready to harvest.
Picked about 3 liters of black caps this morning. It's probably about 3 lbs.
View of my berry box. On the right are newly-planted canes of Prime-Ark Freedom blackberry, red raspberry, black raspberry, tayberry, and boysenberry. On left, in the raised bed, are strawberries (Ozark Beauty, Merlan, Mignonette), and at the far end, Sunshine Blue blueberries. #berries #rubus #blackberries #raspberries #boysenberries #tayberries #strawberries #garden #gardening #fruit
Thanks to a kind stranger in a nearby town I now have a Prime-Ark Freedom blackberry. #rubus #blackberry #fruit #berries #garden #gardening #prius
Happy Friday to all you folks inside my phone! I hope you live in a better country than I do when you aren't in my pocket.
Today marked the first day for ripe #thimbleberries!
Also found some #blackberries and some brand new #pinecones during my walk. Pinecones always look mildly ridiculous to me.
I'll be doing a lot of cooking with these blackberries later this summer and would love to try something new with them if anyone cares to share a favored recipe.
