Thread: It's that time again

Get them before the birds do

I'll be glad when mine get that big. I've been picking 10-12 off each day and about done. Think I'll end up wiuth enough for some blueberry waffles this weekend LOL I did notice the birds getting into mine at this house. Never had that problem at the old house

Ms Tammy loves them thangs, I just want her to eat em up so I got more room in the freezer.

We've picked around 5 gallons so far and the bushes are still full of green and turning ones. Pam picked 3 gallons Sunday while I was cutting grass. They are bigger and sweeter this year.

And they are so good for you.

I live for blueberry season. I get to pick at a friend's farm--over 500 blueberry bushes, although they are so old they are more like small trees.

Love blueberries. Wish I could grow them, believe me I've tried. Different varieties together, etc. Blackberries are a different story though. Currently have 10 one gallon zip lock bags full in the freezer - left many on the bushes.

Yep, My bushes are loaded! Been getting the wild blackberries this week also.

Got them bad as a kid picking berries. My wild berries are in a narrow strip along my side yard. I mow right up to them and can pick them while standing in my yard, no chiggers!
