Just starting to come in are the wild black raspberries.

Black Raspberries aka Black Caps

If a person wants enough for a pie, he’s gotta get ready to do battle with the elements:  skeeters, brambles, poison ivy,  and sweat to name some of the obstacles.  Small buckets fastened to belts keep the hands free to pick away till hands turn purple.

Great in milk shakes with some fancy ice cream.  Don’t need any color additives.

They boost the body’s antioxidant defense system, as well – some three times more than red raspberries.
