Strawberry pickin'...

It's that time of year again... strawberries are ready for harvest and my family is happy to pick. We drove through the pretty hills of Afton, seeing horses and cattle along the way to Afton Apple Orchard in search of strawberries. It was a beautifully cool morning, perfect for such an adventure. We toted Adeline along in the Kelty backpack and sat her up to watch us, which she did without complaint. Jackson had a blast finding "only the best strawberries that hid under the leaves."

Good for you did Jackson work on one to eat one to put in the container? Addie just is so laid back but next year she will be helping.

Oh Jackson's mom is lame and wouldn't let him eat the strawberries until they were washed. Strawberries are one of the leaders in pesticide residue!

You can come pick my strawberries Sara, they don't have any pesticides. I have not picked them for at least a week. They are smaller and a tad tart but still good.
