TAKING CARE OF YOUR BLACKBERRIES:

• Make sure your berries don't get hot in the car on the way home after you pick your berries.

• Store them immediately in the refrigerator until ready to use.

• Use blackberries as soon as possible, within 1-3 days

• Don't wash berries until just before using.

• To freeze berries, just wash them, drain off the excess water and drop them into a freezer bag or container.  Use within 4-6 months.  Adding sugar will preserve flavor longer.  To keep each berry separate, spread them on a tray or cookie sheet, freeze, and then put them in a container.
