The last weekend of July, we went to Huber Farms to pick peaches and blackberries. It was so fun, but so incredibly hot!! Despite the heat and humidity, we ended up with about 90 pounds of peaches!! Luckily, most still needed to ripen up...
sophie, emmaline, and jarl.
So, we moved on to Blackberries. This year, the berries were almost the size of small eggs. They were absolutely fabulous!! We picked 4 full pails, but due to the heat, by the time we got them back to the general store, alot of them were leaking. I guess that is what you would call it.
i think emma ate more than she picked.
sophie was covered from head to toe in blackberry juice.
When we got home, we froze the blackberries before they got more ooozy, and this past Friday, the girls helped me can peaches. We ended up with 33quarts. wow! we had sticky from one end of the kitchen to the other. We have scrubbed counter tops and floors about 5 times, and are finally not sticking any more. yeah. The peaches are fabulous! but mostly, we had a great time. I love Huber Farms!
