My mom makes me pick the fruit and send them to her in S.C. so she can dry it she says its good for diabetes. I have yet to do the full spec of jelly, fried, candy (leaf/fruit) and such but it is good stickem be it plaster or paste.

I ask permission before taking it from other people's property.You only want the paddles not the brightly colored fruit. I look for big thick green ones as I want a high moisture content.They have been easy for me to harvest year round. Since you are in northern New Mexico and I am in southern we have 20 deg temperature difference.The juice will preserve with lime. Make sure you get your prickly mix to a beautiful light green color to guarantee preservation.-Mikeyhttp://greenacre-hotsprings.blogspot.com

Is there somewhere I could harvest prickly pears? Just go out with my truck and load it up? Is it a seaonal thing? Can the juice be made and preserved somehow? WE have p pears up here but they are very small.
