We have chokecherries and sand cherries till there come out are ears. The Elder berries will be ready in a month. Then apples and plums. Raspberry are past there prime and Strawberries still growing.

Plus the garden has never looked so good. The Tomato plants are over 4 ft tall and loaded with tomatoes.

Just curious here, but how much do you want and how much are you willing to pay for chokecherries?

I think that since it's the end of July and the Juneberries are done in the Turtle Mountains you are out of luck. The Chokecherries on our lot at Metigoshe are just starting to turn color and with all the rain we have had they should be plump. Lots of wild Ccherries in the Turtle Mtns.

How does one determine when to pick chokecherries, apparently picking early makes them bitter.

^^^^^. There is a real reason that they are called CHOKE-cherries!

I have quite a few chokecherries out by Lincoln. I've been looking at them lately and think they are still about a week away from the balance between abundance, and ripeness.

If you want to come pick your 3 gallons, just let me know. If a person knows how to do it, that doesn't take too long.

If your gunning for chockes or most any Barry to be found in almost anywhere around here these things work wonders! Easy to us and spreads a guy up by a big chunk.
