Kermitt Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) Where is good for Blackberry picking in Sheffield? We’re S35 but happy to go elsewhere! Edited August 21, 2023 by Kermitt Spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJRB Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Plenty of spots around S6 area . A walk on Loxley Common or up the Loxley Valley towards Bradfield should fill a bucket or two. Incidentally ,it’s years since there has been what I would say was a good bilberry season. The bushes are plentiful but no decent amount of fruit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghozer Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 Pretty much anywhere that has greenspace, will have them - the quantity and quality (how far from roads etc) is what varies... Look around on google maps for large(r) open spaces, things like, Parkwood Springs, the Bolehills, The Pondarosa, Skye Edge Fields, Norfolk Park, Middlewood Park, Endcliffe Park, Meersbrook Park.... etc... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought of that Mr. B. Although it would be more profitable to get the team making jars of "Padders Seedless Blackberry Jam" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
