Berries

[bushcraftsman]

Hi,

I dont really know much about wild foods (I want to though)

I was at school the other day during biology we were out and about and my teacher mentioned something about blackthorn berries being used to make sloe gin or something like that. Can anyone tell me more about this? I plan on making it and giving it to my Gran as a Christmas present.

Also could you tell me more or direct me to a website that would tell me all about Wild berries. I'm really interested in getting into wild berries and what not :)

Thanks

Berries are very good for our health. I eat blueberry,strawberry. Blueberry may delay or prevent onset of cancer and neurodegenerative diseases such as memory loss and Alzheimer’s disease.
