Raspberry pie for Halloween?

| | Comments (0)

The raspberries are ripe for picking in Central Illinois. Thanks to Diana D'Asaro who sent along these pictures of an crop for late fall. Diane reports that the raspberries are usually gone by the 4th of July and this late harvest may be the " fruits" of a year where summer really never arrived.
