Blackberry picking in NW Nevada…

Posted on 18 September 2011 by

I finally have enough blackberry juice to make some jelly! YEA! I have 5 cups now. Soon I will be making some Wild Nevada Blackberry jelly!

Blackberry plants are nasty buggers! (((In my best Holy Grail voice))) They have NASTY, BIG, POINTY TEETH! My right arm and both legs are scratched up…berry berry badly.

I think there’s about a month of berry picking in my spot…there’s lots of green berries still.

I'm Michelle and live in Northern Nevada ~ beautiful mix of high desert and the Sierra. While I work at the University, I'd rather take pictures, play with fountain pensioned ink, garden, cook, craft and make quilts. :)

    My beloved planted raspberries in our garden and they’re taking over. He didn’t ask my permission and he tells me I’ll be glad when we’re eating raspberries in the summertime. I am still not convinced. And your pun is not forgiven 😉

    We have some that grow wild in our yard. Not enough to do anything with, tho.

    Mean berries, biting Michelle! So pretty and yummy though.

    I refuse to acknowledge your pun. Crap, I just did.
