Anyone else, like me, missing wild berry season?
They were the perfect hiking snack and I love how effortlessly nature provides them for us โค๏ธ
The season typically runs from mid August to end of September in Canada ๐จ๐ฆ and the US ๐บ๐ธ
Gross, but fun fact that I discovered whilst hiking this summer is that the berries are usually the tastiest near the outhouses ๐ฝ
Why? Because a lot of the pump systems used disperses urine, which is sterile, into the surrounding soil. This stuff fertilises the ground well and, as a result, the berries are sweetest here!
My favourite berries are blueberries and huckleberries! ๐ซ
What are yours?
