   Picking berries can be a real chore unless you have one of these:
http://www.lindensweden.com/html/berry_pickers.html .  Linden Sweden is the 
importer/wholesaler and a number of retailers sell them for various prices. 
The lowest price for it is from Pinetree Garden Seeds www.superseeds.com , 
1-207-926-3400.  I paid $18.95 and they have a smaller one (child size) for 
$8.95.

   By the way, if you are frustrated with having to pay several dollars for 
large packets of garden seeds when you only need a few, ask Pinetree Garden 
Seeds for their catalog.  Their packets are plus or minus of a dollar 
for..........Pumpkin is 12 seeds, Tomato is 1 minimum of 15 seeds, Lettuces 
are 100 seeds, etc.

   No, I won't get a commission.  My picker (this is my second - I've been 
using one for years) just arrived in the mail and I thought you folks would 
like to learn of it.
