Berry Much Fun!

In addition to our apple picking tradition, I also try to get the kids out to the strawberry patch annually. This time of year, I have mason jars just itching for fresh jam. We headed out with some neighbors to a patch just a few miles from home.

And off we go!

That looks like a lot of twigs, to me, Scarlet. Not so many berries.

Putting the kids to work!

Once she filled her container with strawberries, she sat and ate at least half of them!
Fine by me...we pay by the pound. ;)

Scouting the best areas to pick.
