Mulberries and Elderflowers

My parents' elderberry patch is in blossom. There are a bunch of smaller areas around some grain bins, but this is the main area.

I picked a few clusters to dry for tea, flavor kombucha, and turn into elderflower sugar. 


Mulberries are also in season. They are so delicate they can fall off if you brush a branch the right way. 

I filled a mason jar with the ripe berries I could reach from the ground. I tried a handful and was surprised they weren't more favorable. Maybe from all the rain? I'll dry these ones in an attempt to condense their flavor.
