There's a massive blackberry bush in my backyard and I just picked ~6 pounds of blackberries and there's plenty left.
Anyone got any ideas about what to do with a bunch of blackberries?

The cute animals are begging you for more blackberries!
You must heed their calls!
The animals, they yearn for monoculture
but I shall not give it to them, instead I'll plant a bunch of different stuff. Or I won't really plant anything, the wilderness in the backyard is pretty self-sustaining at this point. It's got it all really
The cute animals will surely be disappointed by the finite quantity of monocultured blackberries... but otherwise it sounds like a lovely yard!
As far as using your harvest: I would probably try making preserves, freezing them, and dehydrating them (individually or processed as fruit jerky) to prolong the shelf-life. Then I'd make some pies with the remaining fresh ones. After that I'd probably pawn the extras off on the local community, and/or feed them to the birds.
