ELDERBERRIES

The grass along the edge of our pond is taller than me. I've been busy weed wacking it down to allow the smaller plants to survive.

Three years ago we transplanted elderberries but thought the deer had eaten all the plants. Surprise! Several survived and this year are producing berries.

If the birds stay away, looks like we might be picking berries in another month. They make a delicious, healthy drink and Mary adds the juice to the gummy bears she makes for Owen and Kate. Makes those treats healthy and high in vitamin C a perfect treat for the winter cold season.

Lovely day for a drive so I think we will head north to Barry's Bay and check out the market there.

Safe travels everyone and thanks for stopping by.
