Yesterday me and my husband went to a very big local farm where you can pick your own fruits and vegetables and then pay as you leave. It is basically a do it yourself organic supermarket. 🙂 Since only a specific type of fruits were ready to pick we had the possibility to pick some sweet and red strawberries, raspberries and gooseberries. As I was picking some strawberries I noticed this strawberry growing in the middle of 2 other red and ripened ones. I fell in love with the color contrast, it was like 2 adult strawberries taking care and protecting the new one jealously.
I had an amazing day at the farm, the weather was sunny, you could smell the fresh air and hear no traffic noise just birds singing. It was a nice way of spending Saturday and definitely recharge your batteries.
Carpe Diem!!!

this is a wonderful experience; i really look forward to picking blackberries later this summer when the come ripe, as well! I often take a couple afternoons to pick a whole stash of them and freeze them for the winter for oatmeal etc. Glad you had a blast.

I know, it was amazing and very interesting idea. Loved the fact that you can pick your own fruit and vegetables (a sort of 100% organic superfarm).
