Blueberries

I read in our local paper that the berry crop this year was really good. So on Saturday, Hugh and I decided to see if that's the case. The boys are at camp for two weeks, so we gathered up some old clothes that they'd outgrown, dropped them off, then headed to the blueberry patch.

We were greeted with a sign that talked about "end of season picking" and we both thought "oh no, we've missed out!". But WOW - not to worry! There were loads and loads of berries.




We picked three buckets full - 9 pounds of berries!


Here's Hugh showing some of our spoils.




Where we pick is a family place - self service. I love what they do with their trees. They also have a treasure hunt for kids.


I already made cobbler - yum!
