I tried blue berries here and was not successful. Strawberries, raspberries, then tart cherries. I mix those with my applesauce and rhubarb as well as eating them separate.

Mulberries or huckleberries.

Strawberries, no raspberries, no blackberries, no blueberries oh heck I guess i love all berries or any thing else coming out of my backyard!!!

That’s so funny I was JUST talking about blackberry pie on another thread not long ago. We had a little diner called Herrings in the neighboring town of Hopwood. It has been closed for decades. But best blackberry pie I’ve ever eaten. I was just a kid but I can close my eyes and almost smell the restaurant. Makes me miss my grandparents so much!

Huckleberries, blueberries, blackberries.

You can keep those red raspberries, but black raspberry jelly is hard to beat....

Blue

Blue but I’ve never had a fresh one. Hard to get in kansas

Just got done "picking" strawberries in the garden. I pick one for the pot and one for my mouth. Came in and wife said I thought there were more than that ready. Just said that's all I got. Same thing picking black raspberries. She brings home twice what I do, but I can't hide my purple teeth.

Black Raspberry hate there core in blackberries.

Gonna make my dad a cobbler of homegrown blueberries, blackberries and raspberries for father's day this weekend. Nothing better than this cobbler and some ice cream.

My favorite is jumbo black raspberries don’t remember name

Whatever ones are ripe at the moment.
Generally in this order;
strawberries, raspberries, salmonberries, blueberries/huckleberries, blackberries, cloudberries, crowberries, lingonberries, salal berries.
Washington and Alaska are a berry lovers paradise.

Raspberries favorite berry alone but maybe blueberries in a pie or desserts.

Wild June Berry or Black Current.

Black raspberries jam blueberries off the bush is my favorite.

Black raspberries. But, even though they aren't a berry, I love Bing Cherries for nibbling.

Gooseberries. Love em or hate and not much room in the middle.

Elderberries

Whenever I hear the word Elderberry, I'm reminded of the movie Arsenic and Old Lace where these old ladies were poisoning elderly gentlemen who were down on their luck, with Elderberry wine. Great old comedy starring Cary Grant, Peter Lorre, Raymond Massey, Priscilla Lane, and Jack Carson.

I grow strawberries and blueberries and pick wild black raspberries, hard to choose my favorite, I like all three.

For me it's mulberries hands down.

Blackberries and blueberries

One of my raspberry customers.

Cranberry and lingon berries

You win!

Whatever is in season, wild blackberries are hard to beat because they have an interesting flavor.

I like all the berries if they’re the right varieties . Hate mulberries though insipid sweet nothings.
The raspberries on that little gal’s fingers were ‘Cascade Delight’. One of my favorite varieties. Big, firm and outstanding flavor.

Raspberries and strawberries with rhubarb in a cobbler only thing know about raspberries is thornless and thorned, strawberries is June berries and everbearing

Blackberrys for eating.Elderberrys for Elderberry Cream Chees Pie,,,although I do also like ANY homemade berry pie.

Himalaya blackberries. My wife picks about 500 lbs a year off our farm to sell at the farmers market or to freeze.

And our main crop: rabbit eye blueberries.

Them look some tasty

That blueberry pic was taken the 1st of October. One of the main benefits for me with the rabbit eyes is all the other high bush farms have been done for a month or more and I still have gobs of ‘em. People can hardly believe their eyes. And it’s ver cool being the only guy at the market that still has fresh blues! 😎

This years strawberry planting. You’ll notice I had to go to extreme measures to fence out the gol-durn blacktails!
