Strawberry, blackberry, berries u-pick, you pick, I pick
My postings about U-Pick may have been slightly delayed* previously since I could not click the "Publish Post" button in time (as a result - late in posting*!) and some of you missed the U-Pick berries season. Now, I better be EARLY in the reminder so that you can get ready for berries picking - strawberries, blackberries, other berries. I will be missing it this year : ( ...
but I hope you don't!
Berry speaks: I'm here for just a short while ...pick-me-up while you can
Be close to nature...enjoy and appreciate. These U-Pick berries are perfect for CLICK April 2008 - Au Naturel as fruits at their most natural state. Yes, that is to be at where they are! Don't wait for the farm stand to come to you. You head down to the fields. It's a wonderful feeling to bask in the sun with those berries. :)
For the benefit of those who are staying in California or visiting California in May-June 2008, head towards Swanton Berry Farm along Highway 1, for U-pick.

*OK. OK. See what I mean, about delayed posting - it's already spring in the northern hemisphere (including Taiwan) and I only posted this winter beef stew dish now. That is why I wanted to get the U-pick post out to you early. :D

Oh, that reminds me. I was used to pick Strawsberry back in UK! It was fun. And so fresh.
We ended up eating and eating at the field. Ha ha ha. The owner was mad and we didn't do that again.
we called it Mure(wild berry) in france. We also pick this on sept. Love it when its free for picking. kids love it.
Happy WW!
Love everything about berries :)
I think my favorite berry has got to be raspberries :D They're so pretty and furry-looking when fresh picked. And when they're sweet, they're really delish :) Raspberry bush is definitely a must have when i have my own garden.
blackberries/marionberries grow like weeds here in the Pacific NW, yet we still have to pay to pick them. don't mind though, because it's fun and you don't have to pay for the ones you eat as you're picking!
oh man! i wish i lived in cali :(
Wish i was there! I love picking berries! Yum!
Oh wow! I'd love to come but I'm too far away...
Pick some for me. Please. Heheheh.
Hope you'll enjoy you picking some!
not to worry , those not in california can hop on to cameron highlands for all year round blue , black , green and red berries
I remember going berry picking when I was a kid. I haven't done that for a long time though.
I am so envy, you guys who gets a chance to do these every year. Think the closest I can get is to go to Cameron Highlands to pluck strawberries.
