Berry Picking!!!

2014 was a summer of berry picking, jam making, pie baking, and enjoying farms.  :)  So, here are some of my favorite pictures from lots of those adventures.

Hartland Farm - strawberry picking


 And strawberry eating :)
We often followed our berry picking with a picnic at Sky Meadows State park with a bit of a hike. 

  Jovie loved hiking through the cows up the hill

 It was a decently steep hill
The view from the top was lovely

Cherry picking at Hartland farms


 
 Pretty sure a popsicle on the hill is Jovie's favorite part
 June 20th
Arcadia farms with the IJM HR team- such a great place - a social justice farm

 Jovie really loved gardening there


June 28th
Larriland farm - blueberry and raspberry picking with friends

 The McShanes, Mongellis and Traylors


The cutest little berry pickers you ever saw
 Feeding the goats at the end of our picking was super fun for the girls

 My little helper, crushing the raspberries for jam

August 30th - back at Hartland for peaches, vegetables, and a few stray blackberries




We fell in love with this past-time this summer.

Day with the Hoberts

On June 29th, we met the Hoberts around Annapolis for a day to hang out.  They were staying on the Eastern Shore, and so we met somewhere in the middle at a park for a day of fun!  And, we met Cooper- the new doggie.
