It is a summer tradition extending back many years to eat blueberries and read Blueberries For Sal by Robert McCloskey, so to actually go and pick the berries is a fun addition to our family's established practice.
This year we picked just over 6 kilos. I think we will have to go back! At only $7 per kilo they are so much cheaper than in store!

Cedar and Arrow had their blue buckets and were very good little pickers for me. They probably ate a lot of berries so they got a morning of antioxidant top up! |

Done for the day - a lovely morning spent picking berries and catching up with friends who were there picking too! |
