The berry patch looks like a a snowdrift ... They're blooming like mad , and
they're loaded with fruit . It looks like clumping them is going to make it
a lot easier to bloodlessly harvest them . Actually , it's going to be a
good year for all the wil;d fruits here . Muscadines are loaded with fruit ,
blueberries actually low-bush huckleberries for those who're anal about
names are loaded with fruit too . I'm watching the Mayflowers a mandrake
species too , but see no blossoms yet . Might be because of the late cold
snap - there are tons of these scattered on our land , and if they do fruit
this year we'll be making some jelly .
And I'll be getting our first beehive next week ... I'm so excited about
our garden/orchard/wild fruits this year I could just explode !
