Blackberry Time

We are still sampling at this late date because of rainy weather.  I would rather be done, but one of the treats of late sampling is blackberries. The ones below are not quite ripe, but we are finding some that are.  Wild Raspberries have just about stopped bearing fruit.  The low growing dewberry variety of blackberry is ripe or getting ripe.  The taller vines like below have only a few ripe berries on them.
