Pasha commented on Pasha's blog post Blackberries At Sausal Creek (Dimond Park)"Thanks for the kind words Kim and Oletta. Here's a link to the recipe (in the Recipies Group). I wish it was mine, but it's one originally from Allrecipies.com that was modified for blackberries. Sure worked out to be tasty! :)"

- Hi everybody! I'm very inspired by what everybody is doing to grow natural food and share with others. I'm just starting a more refined garden project this summer and hope for lots of goodies to trade in a few months. Right now I have heirloom seedlings for Tomatoes, Cherry Tomatoes, Cucumbers, Eggplants, Lettuce, Yellow & Orange Sweet Peppers, and Chinese Cabbage. I have a few extras of each so I would be open to trade for other Heirloom Starts especially Strawberries, Seedless Blackberries or Raspberries. Let me know if you would like to trade! I also have several Blueberry Plants that should be ready for production next year!

Blackberries At Sausal Creek (Dimond Park)
Had a fantastic time today picking ripe blackberries thanks to a tip from Kim. It was a great time and very relaxing leisurely walking and listening to the sound of running water. It's amazing to know that there is such a wild place deep in the heart of Oakland. I ended up with 2 pounds of blackberries that made for some tasty scones and blackberry bread - sorry guys, I think I might have cleaned out the creek! ;)…

Mystery Volunteer Revealed...
...and man is it warty! I thought that this plant that turned up in my compost would be a Connecticut Carving-Style Pumpkin but after a few months, voila! We have 3 plants producing yellow warty decorative gourds (squash?) that came from a single fruit composted in Spring.
Due to the mild 70 degree days these, along with my eating Pumpkins, are thriving. I love the look of these things; they remind me of the Thanksgiving Cornucopia Pictures that I saw in my classrooms when…
