Title: WANTED - SLOE BERRIES
Post by: Musky on September 23, 2018, 12:05:26 pm

Morning all, after unsuccessfully trying to find Sloe Berries locally (West Yorkshire) I thought I would ask on here. Anybody either know of any or have any available to pick/purchase please?

Appreciate it may be a little early in the year but after leaving it too late last year I didn't want to make the same mistake again.

Thanks in advance

Hi all, that time of year again! Once again the bushes in West Yorks have absolutely nothing on them, are any to be seen anywhere please?

thanks

I have been keeping an eye out here (Laois. Ireland) and it seems to be very scant pickings from what I have seen in my usual haunts. Blackberries are groaning though - although very tart still.

Sadly still none in West Yorkshire that I can find. Looks like it will have to be an eBay purchase this time round!
