Blackberry (Rubus fruticosus) · Raspberry
📍 574R+34 Stonington, ME, USA
🗓 Season: July · August · September · June
🔍 When is it ripe?
Blackberry (Rubus fruticosus): Deep black and pulls free with zero resistance. Juicy and sweet; no red remaining at the core. Harvest in the morning when cool.
Raspberry: Deep red (or gold/yellow for golden varieties) and slides off the receptacle — the hollow centre is the tell. Does not pull: a ripe raspberry separates at a touch. Extremely fragile; use within hours of picking.
Amazing berry fields! In mid August the raspberries were in full swing - we easily could have picked gallons, and the black raspberries were just starting (scant ripe berries but look like they'll be plentiful in late August)
Come if the wind is up or you have high deer spray as we were chased away by flues on our last visit
