Mountain ash berries - free or trade

Mountain ash berries - free or trade image 1

Large quantity of mountain ash berries available until Sat. Aug 08. 100% organic -- tree has never had a chemical on it for at least 20 years. Approx 10 - 15 pounds. BRING YOUR OWN CONTAINER Free or trade for home baking. :-) Traditional First Nations food item. European use: for jelly or schnaps. Berries are off the branches. You will need to fine-clean and wash. NOTE: Traditionally, these berries were harvested after first frost, which develops the sugars and reduces tannins. Due to climate change, first frost in our area now occurs late November (at the earliest), which is too late: the berries have started to rot by then. In our time, the BERRIES MUST BE FROZEN at least 2 weeks before processing, to imitate the old, colder climate cycle. These were harvested when the tree was just pruned.
