We went berry picking the other day. It was great.

There are so many farms in our area I have to work hard to keep from banging my head as to why we haven’t partaken before this.

It was a great outing for the Sweet Peanut. Something fun for our tiny family to do together and we worked together until the end.

We all picked, washed, and processed together.We picked 27 pounds total.

I made freezer jam, strawberry tarts and a berry pie (mixed berries).

We gave about about 8 pounds and froze the rest. They were very sweet which, you know, strawberries sometimes don’t live up to their name. But these were great!

Here are some pics.
