Sounds like juneberries which ripen before the blackberries. They are a bit smaller than blackberries to. trudy

CF do yawl have a problem with rattlers in the blackberry patches? Here you really have to watch out for them. And don't go in where its thick cause chances are real good you will come up on at least one. I've always heard where theres one theres another close by. I don't pick any where I can't see real good around me and thru to the ground. trudy

We have Rattlers and copperheads.. Both them nasty critters like hanging out in the underbrush... We are just a little careful when we pick... At least if you smell cucumbers at least then ya know a copperhead is close... The rattlers warn ya every once in a while...

The sound of the lawn tractor scares em away at least so we run that thru before we pick...
