So far this week we picked blackberries, crabapples, black currants, and choke cherries. This is definitely a very busy time of year for us, but the wine is so worth it!
Yes! Here on Vancouver Island the blackberries are just starting to ripen. Two days of picking after work and I have 5 lb in the freezer, but I need 45 lb to make up for a lack of affordable Okanagan cherries at the grocery store this year. Fingers crossed for the August peaches. My garden did produce a fair amount of rhubarb.
I just bottled last year's blackberry-blueberry wine and it's going to be pretty good in a few months.
