MAYHAW JELLY IS GOOD FOR WHAT AILS YOU

We have two large mayhaw trees in full bloom now in our backyard that have produced many gallons of berries through the years.  Mamoo  makes wonderful mayhaw jelly each year.  The berries drop off the trees in the Spring, and we now have two great grand children (Caleb 9 and Alexis 6) that come over and help us pick the berries off the ground.  (It is not easy to bend down at our age and pick them up, and the kids seem to like this little job - for a while).  

Last year they came over and the berries were all over the ground.  They loved to see which one could pick up the most berries.  They both picked for about fifteen minutes, and then Alexis called for me and said, "My GIZZARD is starting to hurt, Paw Paw", and immediately Caleb said,  "So is mine".  So I told them to rest a while.  (That was the end of the berry picking until next year).  I hope we have another bumper crop next year!

ps:  Our grandson Craig Delony asked me to give him two mayhaw trees for his new backyard.

This week, October 2009, he and his son, Parker (2 years old) helped me plant them at their home in Jacksonville, Florida!
