Strawberry picking!

We belong to a CSA (Community supported Agriculture) where we get veg and a little fruit delivered to a pick local that is near to us. a few, um weeks ago, we drove out to the actual farm for some supplemental berry picking. ahhh sweet berries fresh off the vine, with the company of a friend it was delightful!



they very cleverly had little cars and trucks to occupy those not so inclined to spend hours picking
Bruce was incredibly diligent, and lily's container somehow never really managed to get that full, but she was very attentive to sitting in the patch and getting them off the vine ;)
I got to hold little baby Noah while his mom took a turn picking...ahhh

such big helpers!

having a picnic lunch under a shady tree after all that picking was delightful. Here's mama and baby enjoying it


and of course, post picking ice cream at a local stand :)
