What to Bring
- A water bottle

- Gloves for Gooseberry Picking
Ready to pick some gooseberries?
Gooseberries are part of the currant family. Their branches have sharp spikes, so picking them can be a painful experience and not recommended for young children to pick. They turn from green to shades of pink and red. The pinker they become, the sweeter and more ripe they are. Some folks compare their taste to that of a sour grape. I find them to have more of a plum-like taste.
For gooseberry picking, we recommend you wear closed-toe shoes, long pants, sunscreen, a sun hat and gloves.
