I always love for the month of June to get here...wild blackberries are ripe. I have not had a chance to go out and check the wild plums yet, they are usually a week or so after the blackberries. I have eaten all the ripe ones out in my garden. My grapes are loaded this year, very large, plump green grapes......the ones that were supposed to be purple seedless ones.....LOL....the squash and zucchini are coming off now, the onions are ready to pull up and dry for later use. The mint has gone crazy from the rains, it is out of bounds already, but will be ready to put in tea. All fhe herbs are doing great, from the basil to use in noodles, to the fresh dill, rosemary,thyme,and fennel. There are not any strawberries left...I ate them all ! The late frost got the cherry and apricot trees....there a just a few plums to be seen, and a couple apples on the apple tree.

That's all exciting! I'm watching the wild berries very closely- probably won't be ready here until July.....
