The blackberries we planted in the spring of 2006 are giving their first fruit this year!
They have a sweet/sour taste that has to be sooo good for you! The row looks very healthy and there are many more on the way. Like most everything we do, we weren’t too sure how we’d like them or how they’d grow here, so we just put in one 75 foot row. Looks like a thumbs up for blackberries so far. If I was forced, I’d say blackberries make my favorite jam.
Those look so tasty.
I can’t wait to get back to Iowa. 6wks and I can hit up the first farmers’ market I find.
Be sure to check my blog for the best tasting blackberry pie recipe I have ever had!! I like it much better than blackberry cobbler.
