I've never hunted down ripe berries, though. Something to do next time, and I'll be forewarned to bring along some hand protection...lostlandscape (James)http://soenyun.com/Blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1935276782286888605.post-28802508791718440532010-10-06T14:45:38.169-07:002010-10-06T14:45:38.169-07:00Hi!

We have a neat trail nearby, Lewis Creek Trail, with lots of unique California natives. Please check out my blog. Sierra Foothill Garden.

With as many blooms as we had in spring, I have to assume the deer devoured the rest. They really are wicked looking fruits though. I don't know how the deer can stand to eat them!Curbstone Valley Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714297348566721344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1935276782286888605.post-37422761206022756922010-09-23T23:21:50.453-07:002010-09-23T23:21:50.453-07:00Hi Christine, Thanks for that heads up on my last...Hi Christine, Thanks for that heads up on my last post about that native food talk, unfortunately I got it too late.<br /><br />I didn't mind the seeds in the gooseberry, but we did find particularly sweet and juicy ones. As for Chia, I just bought a bag to try. It's not super flavorful, but does seem to have a bit of nuttiness. I've been mixing it in some oatmeal and also sprinkled it on salad. It seemed to make things more filling. I like it.bradziohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15159166125768562973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1935276782286888605.post-39274248298230569102010-09-22T08:11:07.699-07:002010-09-22T08:11:07.699-07:00Well, I appreciate you taking one for the team and...Well, I appreciate you taking one for the team and trying the twinberry. I'll now take your word for it! I harvested some gooseberries from my plant and it seemed difficult to eat without chomping on the numerous small seeds. The seeds were bitter, but the berry was really sweet. Do you plan on trying any native seeds like Chia? I've always been curious about those.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07938196559124125578noreply@blogger.com
