Sounds lovely. I didn't have much luck with blueberries - the soil probably wasn't acidic enough and I wasn't bothered to figure out how to make it so. I planted raspberries instead - two varieties, that ripen at slightly different tmes - and they're spreading like wildfire. There will be a second harvest of berries in a couple of weeks time.

Raspberries are very easy to grow, and you're right. They do spread like wildfire. Our blueberries are currently in our veggie garden, but we'll be moving them next year to a more suitable place. I'll try to post some pics ...
Toronto mulberry forager would make a good mobile application
So now I'm making a map of Toronto showing all the mulberry trees and I signed up with Shrinkray to make a mobile application that shows all of the publicly owned mulberry trees in the city
Now I need your help finding them all.
I think its a terrific exercise in web networking and the power of interactive media to share this unique information.
Because it never hurts to know where you can get a mouth full of delicious mulberries, for free, anytime in July and August, in Toronto
The western edge of the 100 Wellesley St. E. property has 3 mulberry trees along the fence between 88 & 100 Wellesley E. about 40 feet north of the sidewalk. Technically this is private property but the pathway past these trees through this area to Cawthra Street is not enforced.
