Blackberry winter

This is probably the last of our cool weather, but I can hope for more. We need a cold snap to set the fruit on the blackberries, the temperature dropped to 40 degrees last night. That should have made the crop, now, if we get enough rain, there will be loads of blackberries. I have one place left, in the woods, where everything grows wild. No goats to eat all the vines and trees, how they would love to be in those woods. There are 2 beehives amongst the berries, that will make the tastiest honey. There was no honey last year, so much rain the bees stayed in the hive and ate all the honey.I Don't blame them, but I am hoping for a good honey flow this year.
