Do you love fresh fruit like strawberries and blueberries? I do! In fact, when I was pregnant with my first child, I craved PINTS of strawberries. We had a joke going around that my baby would be born red like a strawberry!
My FAVORITE time to eat berries? Summer of course! Summer is the season for fun in the sun, but it’s also the season to remember and celebrate important holidays including Memorial Day and Independence Day. !
When I think of summer and holidays, I think of picking strawberries in the fields in the hot summer sun.
We picked strawberries when we lived on the East Coast and now we enjoy picking fresh strawberries on the West Coast!
There’s just something about picking your own berries and knowing exactly where they came from.
Ah, the smell and juiciness of the strawberries, so fresh. My mouth is watering up as I write this!
Strawberry picking is a fun family activity that you can enjoy together, too. I can remember just about every strawberry picking trip we took with the kids!
