Wild Berries

Do you like raspberries..

... blackberries, red currant jam or a compound of them? Then help us to pick them!

The harvesting of these fruits is the only one that cannot be mechanized. If you watch closer you will understand the reason well: few trees or shrubs are wilder than the blackberry bush and few fruits succeed in hiding within the branches like raspberries!

Raspberries

the fruits are light red, hardly hairy, formed by many small closely joined drupes. They have health properties: astringent, capillary protecting, rich in vitamins. They can be used both for internal use (decoctions and juices) and external use (patches of flowers and leaves) and do not forget the JAM…… They are picked in summer, paying attention not to bruise them, otherwise they endure.

Blackberries

the harvesting takes place from August to late September. They are generous and resistant fruits.

Currant

There are different varieties: red, black and white. The red and white ones grow in grapes and are good to eat alone, while the black ones grow separately, are bigger and stronger and have a strange taste: better not to eat alone! Generally the grapes are very small, watery and with an acidulous but sweet taste.
