This morning, the girls and I get dressed in our strawberry picking finest and headed over to Indian Head Farm to eat pick our weight in strawberries! The weather was incredible, albeit a little on the humid side, and as an added bonus friends of ours joined us on our strawberry picking adventure.
It was a glorious way to spend a beautiful Friday!
Freezer jam and strawberry shortcake are on the agenda to be made tonight.
Our freezer in the basement truly becomes a treasure trove of goodies starting now with strawberry jam, and going to the fall when we'll add butternut squash to our stockpile. There is nothing like the taste of wonderfully fresh, local, organic food in the middle of the winter. A quiet reminder of things to come.
I love strawberry picking! It's one of my favorite summer activities!
