Aside from a compote, jam, or jelly, can blackberries/raspberries be preserved? Dehydrated, perhaps? or canned whole?
Have to admit, I'd not mind the compote... less sugar and less processing.

Common sense is so rare these days, it should be re-classified as a super power.
I like them plain, with a little sugar fresh, mixed with strawberries and blueberries. They are great in a cobbler or mixed with other fruit in a smoothie. Plus jelly and jam. Also good as a topping on pancakes.
They soak up alcohol nicely in Sangria...

The wife makes an awesome Kiwi/Blueberry jelly and a Kiwi /Strawberry jelly.

Be decisive. Right or Wrong, make a decision. The road of life is paved with flat squirrels who could not make a decision.
My wife wanted blueberries so I planted two blueberry bushes this year. They have what I think is a good crop for such small bushes. Now if I can just keep birds and bears from getting to my berries...
I know you can get netting to go over the bushes. They're supposed to keep the birds off the bushes. Don't know about the bears though, they might think you gift wrapped the berries up for them as presents, LOL
Yesterday, Mothers' Day we harvested our first few blueberries. My wife was thrilled! In just a few minutes I will go out and see if we have more ready to harvest. I have to beat the birds to them!
