I love this time of the year, as the summer heat ripens raspberries, blueberries and blackberries. I have a raspberry patch in my backyard. They are easy to grow, and will thrive in just about any kind of soil. I have tried to grow my own blueberries, but didn't have much luck. However, I know a place where I can pick all the blueberries I want and it's not too far away.
While some people are content to have a nice green lawn and something to mow every few days, a lot of us are finding new and delicious uses for our yards!
