Farm Fresh to You

Anisha did some awesome research and found a Saturday that we could go pick as many strawberries as we could... and take them home for free!!! Good job Anisha. I forget what town this was but it's like 3 hours north of San Francisco....a small detail that Anisha forgot to mention until we were 30 min into the trip...but it was worth it!

Ben was so funny...he kept on picking the green strawberries convinced that they would rippen over a few days like bananas do...turns out he was wrong. We tried to tell you Ben. Strawberry picking is hard to do...you have to stoop over and can't sit because you are always having to move to different strawberry bushes. We picked strawberries for about 2 hours.
The strawberries were huge!
This is the farm where we get our organic produce brought to our front door every week.
Bee hives...I don't think you can see the bees but it freeked me out at first because there is a dense cloud of bees.

The boys
It was such a nice and sunny day.....mmmmmm....sun.
We ended up taking two huge bags packed with strawberries home....we had weeks of straberry ice crea, waffels, pancakes, fruit salad....oh it was delicious!
