Fresh Strawberries

On Friday the kids and I picked 6 gallons of strawberries! Every year I think I'm picking enough to last a while and they're always gone before I know it. We've eaten a lot over the weekend, but I froze at least 4 gallons. After we pick blueberries in June we will have the best smoothies. Too bad there are no U-pick banana farms in Atlanta :)

Our little pickers actually do quite well choosing only the ripe berries.
We've gone with our friends the Frasers for about 4 years.

Maybe I can find a U pick avocado orchard in CA?!
