Strawberry Pickin’

Thursday was L’s field trip to the strawberry patch. We went last year too and ended up with more strawberries than we were able to do anything with. This year Melissa learned how to make jam thanks to the Pioneer Woman so that’s what we did! But first we had to pick them.
TF tagged along to the farm and dangled off of the front of Melissa the whole time

And Layla stuck with her friend and bus buddy the whole time

There were a ton of people there which made standing in line to pay a TON of fun!

Layla told me you have to “twist and pull”. That is the right way to pick a strawberry.

Timmy could care less about the strawberries.

Layla also stuck close to her teacher who helped her fill her bucket.

She needed some help

Finally all buckets were full and we headed back to the shop to pay and get some ice cream

When we were done there we took our berries over to Melissa’s to make the jam.

I ended up bringing 10 jars home 😐 We will be eating strawberry jam for a looong time.
