On recent dog walks the dogs and I have been browsing on the ripe berries. I'll stop to pick berries and I notice that the dogs are chomping away at the bushes too. My harvest has all been in the realm of immediate gratification, and I have not been picking berries into a bucket and freezing them. In the park yesterday I found and ate salmonberries, blueberries and 'Russian berries' - Russian berries are a yellow variety of salmonberries. I think my favorite are the Russian berries.
For some reason I've found that the salmonberries seem juicer and more tasty under the trees in Abercrombie than they do out in the sunshine. I am not sure of the reason for this - maybe they ripen more slowly?
