DID YOU KNOW......

That July is National Blueberry Month?

It's true.  For the entire month of July blueberries are the celebrated fruit in the U.S.A. 
It just so happens that the farm still has a good supply of blueberries to help you enjoy this unique event .

Come out Tuesday evening July 6 from 5-8pm and enjoy National Blueberry Month by picking your own blueberries.

Then you can take them home and turn them into something like this.....

Blueberry cheesecake!  Could there be a better way to celebrate National Blueberry Month?

Tuesday Evening picking

There are still berries to be picked so plan to come out Tuesday, July 6 from 5-8pm and get some while supplies last!

Open Tuesday

The farm will be open Tuesday, June 29 from 5-8pm.  There are a lot of nice berries out there so come and get enough to last through the winter!

There are some wet spots because we have the drip lines on.

There are juicy, sweet berries in spite of the weeds and puddles.

We also have cookbooks for sale!

Picking is going to be nice because the humidity and temps are both down.

Thursday Picking

The farm will be open Thursday evening from 5-8pm. 

I keep hoping to look at the forecast and see that temps will be in the 80's with a cool breeze of 5-7 mph.  Today I finally found it!  Tomorrow it will be 81 degrees with a 5-6mph breeze...........in Minneapolis, Minnesota.  Sometimes you just have to think outside of the box!
So, tomorrow evening think Minnesota and it might not feel so hot.  Maybe.  Probably not.

Well, come prepared like these kiddos did, with some fluids.  They came in hot and sweaty from picking this afternoon but they still looked so cute!  Cuteness and sweat do not go together in the same sentence after a certain age but this group hasn't gotten there yet!

See you at the farm!

NOTE:  Our apologies to the boys and girls we got photos of last Tuesday evening.  The camera card decided to malfunction that night and all those pictures were lost.  We sure wish we could have gotten the pictures posted.

Open Wednesday!

The farm will be open from 7:30 until noon Wednesday, June 23.

Same weather as today........HOT.  Bring plenty of water!

Monday, June 21, 2010

Lots of berries

We've got lots of nice ripe berries so plan to come tomorrow evening, June 22 to pick betweem 5 and 8pm.

It's really hot so bring some water to help stay hydrated.

PICKING NOTE:  Lots of people begin picking on the bushes they come to first so the front (east) side of the field is usually more picked than the middle or back of the field. You might find more berries toward the back of the rows.
