I spent an incredible 5-day weekend in Vermont (and yes, it was quite hot even up there) and came home to a nice harvest! Not only did I harvest my first zucchinis (8-Ball and Plato- the Cashflow’s have a few small fruits on them but not big enough to harvest just yet. Disappointing, considering it was billed as an “early” type. Slow to mature AND bad germination? If they don’t end up as heavy producers, I wont be growing those again), but I also got a nice handful of Sungolds and two pints of wineberries (nope, those aren’t raspberries! I’ll tell you more about them tomorrow!) and the most exciting thing- I found a new blackberry patch! They are quite large and pretty tasty- a little tart but still good for out of hand eating, which is different from the other blackberries we have growing here. I’m SUPER excited to have these! Blackberry cobbler is in my future in a few weeks!
And what are you growing? Head over to Daphne’s and let us know!
Yum, love cobbler! What a nice harvest, the berries look awesome!
Oh yum blackberry cobbler. But with the weather here I’d probably make blackberry ice cream to cool off if I had berries. I just can’t believe the heat we have been having.
Mmmmmm, NICE berries! Congrats on finding the new berry patch!

The berries look scrumptious, the 9 ball zukes look so cute, and my mouth is watering from the thought of berry cobbler!
I am not familiar with 8 ball zucchini, there are so many varieties, it is interesting to see what others are growing. The berries look delicious.
