RE: Fruits & Veggies Monday: Strawberry Picking!!
What a wonderful experience. To be able to pick those right off the vine is truly a gift. You are so right, what we buy in the markets will never compare to picking them yourself. Wish I could have been there! Unfortunately the last "farmers market" I visited contained only 1 actual farmer....all of the other booths were people who had bought from a local food co-op and were reselling at the "farmers market" I was so shocked and disillusioned. Looking forward to your strawberry creations!!!
It really is such a wonderful thing to do! To feel those berries warm and alive in your fingers as you gently pluck them off the plant--heaven! We are very lucky in that the farmers market close to us is full with actual farms. I am very thankful!
