Thank you so much for your tribute to 'Celebrating the Southern Seasons' on your blog.<br /><br />* Leanne, oh blackberries, how I love them but there are few opportunities to pick my own now. Lucky you.<br /><br />* Penny, 'those whose pantries are bare', you put it so well. I hope the sun starts peeping in on you soon.<br /><br />* Friko, how wonderful to be able to gather your own fruit. When I was in England I gathered blackberries, hazel nuts and elderberries and made elderberry jelly. I enjoy hearing about your old country habits.<br /><br />Thank you Gallivanta, Leanne, Penny and Friko for your comments - I appreciate them so much.Juliethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01542985048406828693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078877172139600813.post-49779504362870897042015-02-03T09:49:56.960+13:002015-02-03T09:49:56.960+13:00I always find something new and thought provoking ...I always find something new and thought provoking here. Today’s post is no exception.<br /><br />Yes, I gathered food to eat too, albeit a long time ago. Grain, herbs, fruit and berries. As well as potatoes left over in the ground after harvest.<br /><br />Nowadays I gather blackberries, elderberries, sloes and crab apples. Sometimes rosehips too. It’s a pleasure to do now that I don’t depend on my gatherings for food.<br /><br />I make jams and jellies and Beloved makes wine. The old country habits stay with us still.Frikohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04277167831642088694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078877172139600813.post-28181495078485554452015-02-03T04:14:17.908+13:002015-02-03T04:14:17.908+13:00Wonderful, wonderful Juliet.

Thank you.
