Bring On The Black And Blue!

No, I do not want a punch in the face. 
However, I am so ready for some black and blueberries.  As of today, the blackberries are red, and the blueberries are green going to pink.

Though the blueberries bloomed a few weeks early this year, survived some frost scares and look fantastic, I still don't think they'll ripen much earlier than last year.  We must wait until early July.

It's hard not to be impatient.  Look at all these berries! 





As for the strawberries, it's nearly time to say "goodbye," until the fall.  Some of the high tunnel plants are still pumping out a few plump ones, but I'll soon renovate the beds.  Thanks to freezing and fermentation, we will be able to enjoy them all year long.
