A favorite activity for my sons Gavin, Trevor and Connor when growing up was picking raspberries and blue-berries. As might be expected, the quantity that came into the house as a “work product” in bowls or buckets was far below the actual total picked as much was consumed during the task at hand! This tune is based on the popular jig, “Apples in Winter” but is updated here to commemorate these nostalgic and much cherished memories.
