Market Farming

[Joan Vibert <joan AT windwalker-farm.com>]

Jacqueline - do you think the paperboard was absorbing the moisture from
your berries?  I have tons of wild blackberries and was going to pick right
into the pint paperboard boxes this year.  Last year I picked into buckets
and made the mistake of washing them - wrong!  Someone on the list mentioned
picking right into the container but maybe I should get the plastic berry
boxes instead.  Any ideas out there?  There nothing more worthless than
gooey berries - unless its totally wilted chinese cabbage, not a pretty
site.
