    Awesome! My blackberries are just starting to ripen... my blueberries are weeks away. My raspberries have been putting out fruit for at least a month... golden, red, and black. Starting to get a few squash now, too... goes good with the eggplant.

    We net the blueberries from the birds, the deer and birds don't mess with the blackberries for some reason, they seem to prefer eating my hedges and flowers

    Our squash is going nuts, so are cucumbers. We had a huge harvest of cherries this year along with mulberries and gooseberries. That blue berry bush is incredible, we got 4 harvests that size so far from one bush!

    me too.

    however around here, berries will attract deer, bees, raccoons, squirrels and bunnies which....... will draw fox.

    So:
    deer= venison
    bees = honey
    racoons = cool hats
    squirrels=uselss
    bunnies= tonites supper
    Fox= fox tail hats.

    I'm inspired. Nice work buoys.

    I'm trying to grow some of my own soon. I just have to figure out what I'm least likely to kill.

    nice pics. I planted asparagus about 5 years ago, added some chicken manure, solid crop every year, and it mutliplies. Don't be afraid to grow potatoes, right out of the ground they are so good you don't need butter
