Oregon Grape - State flower and great for Jelly!


I try to learn about new food sources as often as possible. I knew that Oregon Grape was used to make dye, but had not pursued it's other uses such as a food source (Jelly). The berries are not yet ripe here but should be ready in early fall.

Here is a link to one of the jelly recipes I've found. https://agardenerstable.com/2010/08/26/the-oregon-grape/

Watch out for those spiky holly like leaves! They hurt!
