We went strawberry picking with a friend on Friday, at a farm in Davidsonville. It was so much fun! They have a very relaxed attitude to toddlers that just stand there and eat strawberries, which was just as well. The idea of food growing in the ground before it hits the supermarket appears to have finally gotten through to the four year old in a very real sense, judging from the extended conversations we have had since about our fresh food, which is great.
The boys and I managed to pick around 3lbs, so for the first time in my life, I have frozen strawberries in the freezer! Unfortunately this farm is closing after this strawberry season, so we'll have to find another farm next berry season.
