Today, with the help of my best friend and her sister, I managed to collect a whole tub of blackberries! I'm looking forward to the next few weeks as I've seen masses of blackberries growing! By next week I should be able to go out to my main picking sites and come home with three or four tubs. A further week of blackberry picking should mean I can fill at least 5 tubs per day, on average. I might start taking an extra large tub with me so I can collect plenty of them.
I'm super glad that blackberry season has started because strawberry season has pretty much ended, and raspberry season seems to be coming to an end.
I'll be making jam with the blackberries, like I do every year, but I'm going to be using some to experiment with new recipes. I remember making a blackberry and orchard apple pie last year, which turned out great! This year I might try making some sort of cake (gluten free!) with blackberries.
If you have any good blackberry recipes, please leave them in the comments! Thank you for reading and goodbye until next time :)
