Having enough huckleberries for a pie is a massive treat. In past years with both kids and wifer Lucille, on a good year, we could pick 3 gallons of huckleberries. Mostly we made jam and syrup, but would make one pie. You can mix huckleberries with any other fruit, and the huckleberries will take over the flavor.
That's a good thing because they make huckleberries last longer.

About 5 years ago we had a good crop of wild Black Cap Raspberries along our property line. We got a quart or so every day for a few weeks. They would start red and ripen to black. Never made a pie but we did the jam thing. Stuff around them is so overgrown they're choked out.

Those berries look really good!

That picture stirs up memories!

We don’t have that particular variety here, but we have some that look pretty close.

When my Grandmother was alive, she would make a huge berry cobbler in a porcelain dishpan to take to the Family Reunions.

It was a very short window to pick them being so small. Too early they were red, too late mushy. The birds didn't care either way.

Borderline silly. Can't pick em fast enough. Already given a ton away. The yellow and San Marzano's are awesome. Got plenty of basil to go along for the ride.

GOOD STUFF!!!

OH, much more to come yet!

Looking good!!

Yellow's are the way to go. Very sweet, low acid.

Very nice.

Our cuke plants burned up in early August, no more of them until next spring.
