Restoring ecosystems allows opportunities for us to interact closely with nature. We are committed to allowing nature to reclaim areas and as a result we often find flourishing patches of bramble. Today’s weekly exploration of the perimeter of the Match Tract Project provided a close encounter with a humming bird who approached within two feet of my head twice and yielded four cups of wonderful wild blackberries. I captured a photo of the blackberry vines after removing the ripe blackberries, as well as, a photo of the blackberries and some wild honeysuckle vine. The honeysuckle blooms smell amazing and draw in many pollinators.
We love blackberry cobbler with ice cream and hope you have a chance to try the lazy day version of a cobbler this summer.
