We have had a stream of sunny days, so I decided that it was time to pick some berries! The strawberries were a bit late this year, and the raspberries were a bit early, so we got lucky! We headed off to Remlinger Farm with some of Addison’s chums from school. They were focused for about 1/2 hour and then they decided that throwing dirt clods was more entertaining! I was able to get some good pictures of the boys in action…
When it was all over, Alivia just had to rest in the van.
Lastly, it was time to show off the berries!
Addison had lots of strawberries to take home (jam time), but he had no raspberries. There weren’t enough to make for easy picking, so Luke and I were the only ones to dig in deep enough for a pound of yummy fruit.
With all our strawberries –35 pounds in all!- I was able to make some freezer jam. It mostly turned out, and we’ve had some awesome PB&Js this week!
