Just picked about 5 lbs an hour ago. Jam making tomorrow and maybe a raspberry pie or raspberry shortcake with the next picking.

Yep. This the season for purple finger disease.
Picked 3 gallons last weekend. Probably done unless I decide to whoop up a fiver of black raspberry wine......

Hours of good fun picking seeds out of one's teeth.

Wish I could get them to grow good around here.
The few blooms I get freeze of with the late frosts like this year on the 18th of June.

It's blackberry time here. I have a bunch of the tame ones, and we sell the berries, mostly at the local produce auction, but also to some regular customers. They'll bring anywhere between $4-5 a quart, though we sell them in boxes of 12 pints at the auction. I do have a few raspberry plants, but I don't really care for them all that much.
