| Greetings!
U-Pick Blueberries will continue on Saturdays and Tuesdays beginning at 9 am. We're not sure what time the u-pick will end; it depends on how many people are picking.
Five Reasons why Saturday will be a Great Day to Pick Blueberries:
-
One. They are incredibly healthy, and who doesn't want to eat healthier?
-
Two. They are sweet and juicy. My kids are eating them like candy. Well, two of the three. Jessica, my youngest, is holding out for peaches and sweet apples. But Matt, my oldest, can somehow pick and eat them as he cuts the grass around the plants!
-
Three. The plants are loaded. There should be plenty!
-
Four. The weather will be sunny and beautiful, not rainy like last Saturday.
-
And Five...You can grab a bag of Lodi or Transparent apples as well.
The early apples are being picked this week. So if you've been waiting for that just-picked-apple, this is your chance! Lodi and Transparent apples make excellent apple sauce. They are tart apples. The sweet apples will begin about mid-August.
The stand is not officially open, but Marisa will be at the stand until 1 p.m. to help you if you want some apples. Ask her about her mission trip to Haiti. She just got back this week. We have some amazing employees!
We're hoping the stand will be open with peaches very soon - hoping for Monday, July 21st. I'll let you know for sure in next week's newsletter. |
