Raspberries

      Something else I did not know grew on our land is wild raspberries. After finding the Indian Pipes I thought I would take a look at the sunny back corner closest to the Lupine Hill and see what was growing there this summer. Only half-convinced that I was seeing honeysuckle berries, I took a second look and found ripe red raspberries! The black raspberries that ripen later grow in the shade on the other side of what we call the bamboo. Black raspberries are exceptional when stewed with our black currants that ripen at the same time. The result is a black version of “rote grütze” a delicious dessert made with red raspberries and red currants. Has anyone seen red currants anywhere?
