I'll be heading over to one of my spots to pick some after work today. I plan on making dewberrie Panna cotta over the weekend. The wife who is a lot better at picking them won't go with me anymore as she somehow manages to get into poison ivy every time...lol Here is link to the recipe ill be following.

Well shoot. Now I'm gonna have to go find me some dewberries. That recipe looks good.

Russ81 · 04-13-2018, 06:12 PM

We’ve been picking last couple of evenings, not hard at it but enough we filled a half gallon coffee can up. Even got an official theme song

Tracy moss · 04-13-2018, 07:56 PM

Cantcatch5 · 04-13-2018, 08:00 PM

Wow it seems really early. I guess I will have to go check on them at the lease.

Mexico · 04-13-2018, 08:13 PM

Lots of ripe ones in Brazoria co...

wanderin39 · 04-13-2018, 08:15 PM

Since coming to Houston I have not found enough bewberries to start to make a cobbler.

brokeno · 04-13-2018, 09:06 PM

Ours are not ripe yet need another week or so. Love that homemade dewberry cobbler with homemade vanilla blue bell. Yum yum

It can be tough but I’ve seen some pretty good patches along the highways in Brazoria County going towards freeport.

Ours is 50/50 ripe/green. I expect by next weekend we’ll be sick of picking them, but it also means I gotta step up my fence replacing game if I got that many dewberries

I picked a few cups worth on Friday for the panna cotta and the wife and I went back yesterday and picked 2 gallons in about an hour. The panna cotta turned to be really good! This was the first time trying or making panna cotta so i didnt know what to expect. It tasted like a creamy berry flavored pudding but creamier and slightly tart. It was good but it didn't compare the cobbler my wife made! Ill post up the recipe she used in another post.

Best way to find spots is to look for all white flowers that bloom in mid March. Like Russ81 said you can spot them usually on the side of the road while driving.

They are ready at our place. My wife picked some earlier today.

postman · 04-16-2018, 06:41 PM

Too dry down here this year, not going to be very many berries. Need some rain. No comparison to any other berry.....domestic blackberries aren't even close. Love dewberries

Old Mathews · 04-16-2018, 06:52 PM

Good stuff, haven’t picked any in years. Mom used to make cobblers, pies and jam.

brnhtown · 04-16-2018, 07:16 PM

Still all red berries here in Brazos county

gonehuntin · 04-16-2018, 07:26 PM

Mine are not near close to being ready to pick. Still green. Looks like a good place for Dewberries and Snakes.

Patton · 04-16-2018, 08:51 PM

Still not ready in Caldwell County. Lots of reds and tons of greens.

DesertDug · 04-16-2018, 10:02 PM

Looking good.
Hope when I get to the lease this weekend the birds haven't got to all them. Louie me some dew berry wine!

Cooper · 04-17-2018, 09:18 AM

Best jelly you have ever eaten!!!
I love me some dewberries for sure.

Dillakilla · 04-17-2018, 09:42 AM

Prob a dumb question...but are dewberries just native blackberries? Or is it a whole different plant?

Yep! But they are sweeter than a blackberry

Dusty Britches · 04-17-2018, 01:14 PM

My dewberries are not ripe yet. The ones that look ripe are still sour.
