Strawberry Picking Time!

It’s that time of year again – strawberry time!  The girls and I picked Diane up on Tuesday morning and we headed north to Pardeeville to pick ourselves some berries.  I’m not actually a huge fan of strawberries but they are are to beat when you’re eating them fresh off the vines.  Cedi and Capri were fabulous pickers and Pip did a great job napping while we were there.     Capri worked ahead of Grandma in the field.  It’s not everyday that you see a girl in a tutu-like skirt picking strawberries!    Here’s Persimoni – slacking on the berry picking job… Cedi was a good berry picker but I think she mostly just went down the row and ate as many as she could.  Regardless, she picked about a quart and a half.     Capri was the best berry picker of the two girls.  She easily picked two quarts as well as ate her share.  If you look carefully at Cedi’s mouth area you’ll see it’s quite obvious that she may have enjoyed a strawberry or two… Roger Price Produce N7556 State Rd. 44 Pardeeville, WI 53954 Home: (608) 429-2750 Cell: (608) 697-2756 My playgroup headed a different strawberry farm in DeForest last Friday and had a great time as well.  Here’s there info: U Pick Strawberry Farm 5396 Hahn Road Deforest, WI 53532   ***I made a delicious Double Strawberry Cream Pie today – I’ll be posting the recipe in a few days on my orchard blog…***
