I'm not a fascist. I'm a priest. Fascists dress up in black and tell people what to do.
Hey finally a thread for me. Foraging and picking berries is a huge deal in Finland. In july we picked blueberries (bilberries actually, like blueberries but blue'er, stronger taste and dark on the inside, stains like a gently caress)









We had a pretty lousy blueberry year because of drought, but we've had loads of rain now and I wanna head bavck out and see if I can get home another 10l bucket.

I also borrowed my moms wooden berry picker, like this except it's 40-50 years old. The modern plastic ones sucks, the steel wires just work better at picking the berries I think:



Later in autumn we'll have lingonberry season as well. When I was a kid everyone had to bring one liter of lingonberries to school, the kitchen lady would make jam from it to last the school year.
