Well, the raspberries were a bit of a disappointment - only got about 5 quarts after the birds and critters got their cut. In another few weeks, I'm gonna' have to do some serious clearing of all the scrub growth around the bushes and get some nets to cover them next year. Keepin' my fingers crossed.
BUT!!! We also have 4 Black Walnut trees and 2 REALLY HUGE Chinese Chesnut trees, and even with the squirrels, chimpmunks, and other critters, I collected about 2 gallons of walnuts and 3 gallons of chesnuts this morning. There's scrub growth around all of the nut trees except for one of the Chinese Chesnuts. Once that's cleared out, them critters are goin' to have a bit more competition next year.
