July 22, 2011


Wild grapes. There's a grapevine at the end of the hayfield, growing over some kind of apple tree. I've made jelly from it's grapes twice, though it's been several years since the last time. It doesn't have grapes every year, or it just doesn't have enough to bother with. But every so often, it will have an abundance. This is one of those years, it is covered with tiny grapes. Being wild, this is as big as they get (I am actually surprised they are this big). But they make a good, very tart jelly with a pretty purple color.
