Hood River strawberries, which will be coming into local stores next week. We have a patch of them in our yard, but we buy flats of them and can them for winter. Second would be wild blueberries, not those tasteless farmed things you get at the grocery. Also huckleberries and gooseberries. ---

My “others” are tayberries and marionberries. And I adore blackcaps but they don’t have berry in the name. ---

Not a big fan of eating berries as they come, but I’ll happily eat gooseberries [in a crumble](http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2303640/) with a big dollop of clotted cream, and raspberries in a home-made smoothie with bananas and OJ. ---

Blueberries or blackberries. On another note, I have recently been purchasing dandelion greens (organic) at one of the major organic grocery stores, and I find that I really like them in salads. I got tired of eating spinach, and dandelion greens are an excellent substitute. I combine the dandelion greens with lettuce and olive oil and vinegar. Getting back to the berries, they all are good, but pancakes with blueberries is tops in my book! ---
