Berry Report

Today we picked all the berries, and here's the report.

The boysenberries are pretty much finished, but there are still some beckyberries to come.  The beckyberries started a little earlier and produced a bigger crop than the boysens.

The raspberries have slowed down, but there are still some of the single season ones coming.  The loganberries are finished.  They were a bit of a disappointment.  There were not a lot of them, and what there was were hard to pick.  They need to be picked while they are still somewhat red.  I'll give them another year to prove themselves.

The marionberries are finished.  They were a little more tart than the others.

The prime-ark blackberries continue to produce.  There are even some flowers on them.  David doesn't like them, but I do.  They have more of a traditional blackberry taste.

The strawberries are picking up again, after a brief hiatus.  There are quite a few flowers coming.

We picked lots of blueberries today.  The Earliblue and Spartan are finished, but the Jersey and Legacy are just starting and have loads of berries coming.





















The Chandlers are huge.  There's no way I could use them in muffins.
