The weather has started warming, as this weekend we'll finally hit around 85° F (~30° C). There are a lot of berry plants that have started to bloom: blueberries, strawberries, marionberries (Mr.Fogu's favorite), raspberries, and the lovely fellow pictured above. Long-time Farm'n Friday readers might remember the stories about the white blackberries from last year and their introduction from the year before. Now that the canes are two years old, they've pushed out some blooms and will, hopefully, be producing white-colored Snowbank Blackberries this summer. We're not sure how they'll taste; maybe bitter, maybe sweet? It'll be something to look forward to sharing when things return to some sense of normalcy, and we can visit with our friends and families again.
