Better Late than Never


Last year we missed strawberry season due to prepping for Sweden. The year before I made horrible strawberry freezer jam so I was really disappointed. This year I was away for most of the picking season, though I was determined not to miss it.  We managed to squeak in one day of picking on the very last day of the season.  We drove up to Fairfax, Vermont to River Berry Farm. It was far north so still had some growing.  It was slim pickings for sure, but we had patience enough to pick enough for some freezer jam.  Mostly, I just love the romance of berry picking. And I love going with the boys and anyone else who wants to pick berries.
