Blackberries are the gift that keep on giving! Fairly low maintenance, productive, and tasty. And you can sell the runners for cash or give them away to spread the love!

    Thanks for the reminder that I should definitely plant some of these. Fresh blackberry jam is heavenly! Definitely one of the most underrated berries imo

    • There’s nothing like eating them right off the bush in mid-summer, still dusty from road grime and warm and juicy from the hot sun. Heavenly.

      My friend gave me some liqueur from fresh blackberries once. It tasted like a ray of summer sunbeams and I loved it so much that I “saved it for a special occasion” until it went bad.

        Oh man, I’m the worst at that. So many wonderful things too precious to eat or drink that I held onto until they could no longer be enjoyed.
