Berries, blood and mud: Oregon’s most delicious invasive weed

Picking berries is a quintessential summer tradition for many Pacific Northwesterners. The region has many farms, but fruit can easily be found in everyday corners. For about the past 140 years, the Himalayan Blackberry has taken over Oregon’s alleyways, waterfronts, forests and backyards. This thorny vine is actually a cousin of the rose, the plant behind Portland’s most famous nickname, but instead of beautiful flowers, the vines produce juicy fruit.
