Flowers aren’t the only thing getting picked this Spring season; it’s time for strawberries! If you are looking for a great activity for your kiddos, take them to the farm and pick some berries. There are some great places around town to pick what my daughter calls “Scrawberries”!

Tips and Tricks For Your Strawberry Picking Trip!
Before you go out, please be sure to check if the farms are open!
Sometimes farms will be picked out, too muddy, or they are waiting for more strawberries to ripen. It’s always best to check before you make the drive out.
– Talk to your kids about bugs…they may see a few when they are picking.
– Don’t leave the strawberries in a hot car. They may not even make it home…if the kids have a snack!
– Put them in the fridge when you get home and don’t wash them till you’re ready to eat them.
– Keep your bucket if given one. You may want to head back to the farm, but you don’t want to pay for another bucket.
– Your fresh berries should last 5 – 7 days.
