Hey Sunny,
If you like berries for jams, jellies, and such, there's a place over across the river we used to go to called Rolling Ridge Berry Farm. They have a u-pick farm where you can drive right down the rows, and the rows are all trimmed and pruned out real nice. Decent prices, too.

that sounds like a great place to go.
did you know that you can go to the Hillcrest WMA in the Northern Panhandle and pick cherries, berries and apples free of charge?
they have several berry vines and a huge orchard that they maintain and residents of WV are allowed to pick some of the fruits they produce.

already put up 8 gallons of black berries this year.
Just finished off 3 bushels of grapes from the vines at Pa's house. Setting up the wine tomorrow from both.
Elderberries are next for me. Then crabapples from my sis's house. Also need to make about 2 dozen jelly jars of corncob jelly.
Gonna be a good winter of jelly eatin.
