U-pickin'
Trey: "Hey Ethan! Look how many berries I've picked in my bucket!"
Ethan: "I'm an eater, not a picker!"
Full tummies are just one of the perks of U-pick berries! If you've never done it before, you are missing out. You just go out into the field and go for it.
Blueberries are usually about $.95/lb...and you get to pick the biggest best tastiest berries ever. (Yes, I'm a fan & I took a ton of pictures!) We went a few times, and here's some photos of this fun adventure...
{The Field} The 1st field we visited was in Hillsboro. The berries were still a little green, so we really had to hunt for the best ones.
{Ethan, Lucy, & Trey} Hmmm, look who's missing a bucket?
{Babies get it}
Even Aidan got in on the action. His diapers definitely proved to us that he LOVES berries.:)
As soon as he figured out he could get the berries out of the bucket it was all over...
{Proud little Lu} She was excited about this big berry!
{Trip #2} Fordyce's
{Oh Yeah} Its amazing what a week or ripening can do!
{Go Peter!} This time we went with Peter, Mary, & Greyson. Check out Greyson's hand in the berries...however, he wasn't going to eat them, he wanted to throw them! Funny little guy.
{Defending your berries!} This is pretty self explanitory.
Until next year!
