I know what you mean about the thrill of foraging. For us as kids it was wild rhubarb. My foraging dream though, is finding a patch of wild asparagus or morels like Kingsolver writes about in Animal, Vegetable, Miracle (have you read it?) Happy berry picking...so glad Jacob likes them!!! I’ve never heard of salmonberries…but have never tried a berry I didn’t like!

At first, I thought I'd never eaten salmon berries before, though growing up in a Connecticut, I believe we had something similar that would grow wild along our waterfront and in the woods. So, what will you be making with them? Any jams or cake toppings?

I have never heard of salmonberries! I'm in SoCal - I wonder if they grow anywhere around my city...we've got some wild hills in a state park nearby - you never know :) I'll have to ask around! Love the photos, too! Wow! I have never heard of salmonberries!

Thanks for the great pictures, I've never seen salmonberries before. Around here, we have wild wineberries in August, but only for a short period of time. They're like orange-red raspberries and are delicious. Sounds like we each have our own favorite wild berries :) Cool! Thanks for the great pictures, I’ve never seen salmonberries before.
