Harvesting:\u003c\/strong\u003e The late summer to early fall seasons are when you will be looking to see if your berries are ready to be picked.

The picking of the ripened berries is very easy. Simply grab a cluster of the berries and drag your hands down (tying a bucket to your waist is handy to keep both hands free for mass harvesting).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are multiple benefits to adding an c\u003cspan\u003ehokeberry\u003c\/span\u003e plant to your property.
