Been a long time since I had the jellies or pies. We dont have the berries down here in south central Kansas or at least I haven't seen them along the roadside

Riverrat, Memorial Day weekend I spotted a gold mine of elderberries out south of Rock Creek Cemetary. That is SE of Wellsville. I made mental notes so that I can go back in mid-August to pick. It's so easy to spot them when they are in bloom. Just remember where you saw them and beat the birds to them. I know one beekeeper that keeps a spreadsheet on picking locations. He helped me figure this out.

My sister sent me a picture of elderberries up around the Trenton, MO area. They look great, but that area has had a lot more rain than us. She plans to pick up there. The elderberry bushes in my back yard look terrible. I have to water them today, or I might lose them.
