We're planning our fall garden. Right now it's only potatoes and
pumpkins. I'm going to plant onions as soon as the sets are
available. Maybe peas.

For any of you who might be interested in growing blackberries, I highly recommend Navaho Blackberries, as they are self-erecting, thornless, and especially sweet. This summer was my first harvest, and I was floored with the flavor of our Navaho. Forget overpaying for tart blackberries at the market; grow your own. They're hardy in Oklahoma clay soul and dry heat, and you almost can't kill them even if you tried.

My wife and I are growing various fruits, vegetables, and nuts, but I don't know enough yet to discern how our crops compare to other varieties except for the blackberries. If you're looking to grow your own, you can't go wrong with Navaho. And while I haven't made my own yet, blackberry wine is often considered to be the best-tasting wine that one can make at home. Happy gardening.

Very much agree. We have these growing wild and in abundance on our property. We pick them every year and the wife and neighbor makes tons of pies, cobbler, jam and croustades. You can kill these once established, even if you tried.
