RE: Blackberry season means making homemade Blackberry Wine on my homestead. (My longest post and picture set yet!)
These trees were in the Rocky Mountains, probably grow a lot of other places too. They cherry is has a very astringent type of taste to it, almost takes your breath away just eating one off the tree. But it does make very good wine and jam. Every summer the local town is selling a lot of chokecherry jam.
I lived in Glenwood Springs for a year and worked on Aspen Highlands as a Lift Op when i was 20 in 1990. It was fun. I might vaguely recall these smelly cherries. Hrm.. that was a lot of drugs ago, man... I'm 48 now. LOL
