This time of year I get to eat my way through the yard.
At Abenaqui Alpacas we get to harvest native berries that appear in patches throughout the property. In early June, its the native ground strawberries. In July, its the Raspberries. In August, we get to partake in the blueberries, and in September the Blackberries. Here are some ways I have enjoyed the raspberries this year.
Raspberry Pina Colada
Raspberry Cake
Of course, fresh off the vine in the early morning with my dog Kate is my favorite!
I found a few more patches of raspberries trying to dominate the landscape by our brook. So I began clearing around them this summer and picking the small but ripe fruit. This fall I will go in gang busters and clear the area around them and string em up. Cutting canes back in hopes that this time next year they will be a hardier batch.
