Strawberry Patch Farm

Yay!! My dad asked if I want to go to pick some strawberries today. Yes, please!  It's a perfect day for pickin' the juicy red goodness. It's a cool, sunny morning with some fogs in the clearing. The strawberries are ripen up fast. They are ready for picking much earlier than usual because of all the warmer weather that we had been having. My dad, Brian, Conner and loaded up and drove about 45 minutes into the country. There were already early morning pickers at the farm. It cost $10 a gallon....awesome!! You can't beat that price for fresh picked strawberries! This was Conner's first experience. He loved it so much that he actually filled up his stomach more than the bucket. His hands and face were all red. Even his clothes were stained too. BUT who cares about stained on the clothes. Memories are made and strawberries are amazing! Overall, we had so much fun! We brought home 4 gallons of strawberries! Alright! Bring on the homemade jams, desserts and strawberry lemonade!
