Yet again, Rachel planned another awesome adventure picking strawberries at Berry Patch Farms, an organic Farm up in Brighton. My friend Dasha and her little girl Gracie joined us and we definitely had a "delicious" time.
It was really neat to be on a farm. River loved seeing the tractor go around and running up and down the rows chasing Harry and Mattix. He was quite the berry picker, taking a nibble of each strawberry we picked. (Sorry FDA, but he wouldn't listen).
I loved the plum orchard. The trees where heavy and drooping with the ripe fruit, a beautiful sight accompanied by the chorus of singing birds. I was considering planting raspberry bushes in our backyard and after this little visit I really want to.
This was our first "pick-your-own" experience and it was really neat.
Great fruit, great company, and great fun.
Thanks Rachel for including us! It was a really fun day!

River's Haul . . .
Berry Buds!!
Gracie loved the animals, and the animals loved Gracie, So tenderly smelling her sweet little toes. It was really cute.
River was really excited about the plums. He insisted on carrying them himself, showing them to Gracie and others, and picking them up to admire.
Of course River finds a running hose and has to plan with it. Luckily no one got too wet.
