Just not a great one for winemaking from my place. Cherries and strawberries both got nipped by frost. Looked like there might be enough cherries for a pie or two but the robins started on them before they were ripe and took all of them. Didn't net them as there were not enough of them to bother. Strawberries were not very thick either, got enough to have some on angelfood cake and ice cream. Have to wait another year for wine from both of them. I Was talking about blackberries and my daughter showed up with a small bush the other day. It had a few berries on it. It sat outside and Kathy was waithing for the berries to get just a bit darker. Robins took them also and have been getting after the few raspberries we have. Fourth of July is coming, maybe the fireworks will scare some of the robins away.
Elderberries are in full bloom around here, and the currants have berries on them that I have to pick. Got some rhubarb in the freezer. Guess we should be thankful for those. Arne.
