It's been a slow, rough spring for #bakeapples on the north coast of #Labrador. We've been here since June 7, and it looks like peak bloom, if it ever arrives, will be next week.

Still, always enjoy my time here!

We take you to a bakeapple picking spot in Makkovik, and speak with botanists Erica Oberndorfer and Tyler Smith about research on the berry.

While it was a banner year for #bakeapples, it was also early. Peak fruiting was probably a couple weeks before we arrived. We still managed to find a few late berries, and collect most of our data.
