Picking Strawberries
Saturday, May 21, 2005
Last weekend Jenny and I went down to Fayettville's Adams Farm to pick some fresh strawberries. Jenny's a strawberry fiend. She can practically live on them!
Vine fresh strawberries are infinitely better than what you get in the store. All the ones we picked were large, juicy and very ripe. And man how kids love playing along! We're definately going to bring our nephews and nieces down here if we get the chance. I figure we can sit my nephew Josiah in front of one of the bushes so he can go to town. That kid can eat fruit like a pro linebacker.
These farms also give you the opportunity to purchase other fresh produce. We picked up a vidalia onion and some green tomatoes, which will go into some refridgerator pickles. But that's another post...
We liberated 10 lbs. of strawberries from the farm, which will go into desserts, smoothies and maybe even some preserves, if I get the urge.
Here's the official NTSC spokesmodel with our bounty.
