So, are you smarter than an elk? Or....just have bigger "attachments."

Those might be $50 or $100 pies.
Maybe they sell for $14.99 which I would pay. I am sure they are twice as good as Marie Callender's pies.
Beckies Cafe in Union Creek is getting $38 per whole pie.

I pick in the same area as Illc every year. This is the best year in recent memory. My family (me included) has more than we can probably use this year. But not ONE will go to cletus, for snubbing me on a bbq invite....

A guy was selling huckleberries at the GP Grower's Market for what looked like around a cup and a half for $5. If that is the going rate, I can see why a pie is selling for $38.

Beckie's was PAYING pickers $6-8 per pound. It wasn't variable, I just can't remember what they were paying. Because I DON'T sell them. Too damn much work.

Who would hand over huckleberries, for any amount? That gallon is four ten inch pies, or...?....uh....a hunnert and fiftytwo bucks? Beckies might tend towrd exhorbitant. I started going in there sixty years ago. And, quit going in there thirty years ago.
