Foraging makes me happy and wineberry season is my favorite. I’m gonna put some more images in the body!

Soaking the berries

Adding lime zest, juice, and sugar before simmering it into a jam

Lots of jam!

    I’ve never heard of wineberries. What do they taste like? Also, what’s the green stuff in the 3rd picture and what’s it for? Also also, it looks like you live in a lovely area. There must ve lots of calm open countryside for you to roam.

      Wineberries taste like really plump and juicy raspberries to me! They’re my absolute favorite berry I’ve found so far and I’m about to pick this year’s harvest today! So the green stuff in the third picture was lime zest, a bit of sugar, and we also juiced several limes to add. So we made a really nice wineberry/lime jam with some blackberries that we also found mixed in. We don’t have a ton of nice countryside, but I know all of the woods in my county and definitely have my favorite spots :)

          Aw haha I appreciate it! But I’m just posting the bits I’m passionate about; we all have problems and I’m sure your life is just as great lol. Also the berry harvest today was a little early so we’ll be going back every couple days to pick them as they ripen!
