ABSTRACT:
A berry picking device consisting of a container having an open front with a scoop-like portion projecting forwardly therefrom. The scoop-like portion has a bottom wall formed at least in part by a plurality of spaced-apart tines for stripping berries from branches of shrubs, trees or the like carrying the same. The berries stripped from their branches pass over the tines through a screen into a berry collecting compartment. The screen is a mesh or plurality of rods spaced apart from one another with appropriate opening allowing berries to pass therethrough and hold back the loose branches and other debris separating the same from the berries. A portion of the forwardly projecting tines pass over another compartment and the spacing between the tines is such that small berries pass therethrough into the compartment thus separating the collected berries into two different sizes.
