Well I havent looked here but they arent usually ready till September. I used to love blackberry and apple tart (made by my Mum  ) but she hasnt made any for a couple of years now.

Ours are going in the freezer to make wine a bit later on. Hopefully we'll get enough to make a few jars or jelly, perhaps with some apple.
Wild or cultivated blackberries Pricey?

We've had some lovely ones from the garden - bursting with flavour!
Those is the hedgerows are starting to turn so worth a walk out for picking soon I think.
We're worrying about the sloes too - not very promising at the mo. Must check out some more sites though. Fingers crossed we'll find some somewhere...
