It’s berry time in Alaska! Join us on our berry picking adventure. We harvested blueberries (bilberries), watermelon berries, and red currants, but that’s not all we found! We even came across crowberries, cloudberries, and black currants. As Summer comes to an end, it will be exciting to see what additional berries we will have on our property. We made some amazing jams and a delicious blueberry dessert!

Thank you for following along with our adventure and supporting our channel!
