What do you do when it’s 90 degrees outside without a cloud in the sky? You take your out of town friends to a nearby farm for some sweaty fun.  Why? Because you mentioned to your friend’s daughter how great it would be to “pick your own” fruit and after that…there’s no turning back! So, off we went to Wardsberry farm.  Blueberry picking was a breeze but we spent quite a bit of time digging through the strawberry patch since it was so late in the season.   Alas, check out all of our beautiful blueberries and strawberries (and the precious smile on this child’s face):

Despite the heat, we had a blast. The farm also has daily hayrides, picnic tables and play areas for children.  But the best part comes after – snacking on this delicious fresh fruit.

How do you enjoy your fruit? Please share a favorite dessert or smoothie recipe in the comments below.  As for me, I’m thinking blueberry pancakes are a must for tomorrow!
