Strawberry Picking

We went strawberry picking the other weekend and had the best time! The weather couldn’t have been nicer and the strawberries were perfect!! Each kid had a little basket and Ben and I shared a big tray.

Campbell ate more than she saved but Sam took his job pretty seriously and got some good ones! In fact we ended up with over 13 lbs! And don’t worry, not one strawberry went to waste. Besides just snacking on them, we made strawberry jam (with chia seeds instead of pectin), strawberry bars, strawberry rhubarb crisp, strawberry ice cream, and we froze strawberries to use for smoothies. We will definitely make this an annual tradition!

    What great pictures! It’s just like “Blueberries for Sal,” but without the bears.
