A $10 Family Outing

Our mission today: find a u-pick farm and pick blueberries!

Mission accomplished.




4 lbs of blueberries=$8
6 cucumbers from local farmer's market=$1
Head of garlic from farmer's market=$1

Having fun together? You know it....priceless!

And next time we will take mosquito repellent. ;)

  1. We love u-pick farms! But we can never convince them to charge us extra at the end, because our son just about eats his weight in fruit while we're out there. :)

  2. I am hoping to take my kids blueberry picking this month! I can't wait, we were given a whole bunch by a friend, but I want to pick some myself! Looks like ya'll had fun! :) By the way, where did you move too!? How far I mean! Oh, and I posted a great Sour Cream Blueberry Muffin recipe on my blog too, you can check it out here, http://todayon2010.blogspot.com/2010/06/sour-cream-blueberry-muffins-yummy.html

  3. @Starving Student: That is hilarious! This was my first time at a u-pick farm and I LOVED it! I mean, $2/pound for blueberries is such an awesome price and we had a fun time.
    @Today On: We moved 2 hours away from our previous town (we are in Florida). I'll have to check out your Sour Cream Blueberry muffin recipe...I was online today DROOLING over blueberry recipes...so many yummy things to make! I made a blueberry pie tonight and it was scrumptious (hopefully I'll post the tutorial this Tuesday).

  4. We have a U-Pick farm just down the road from us, and I was planning to go this week. Now I'm even more inspired!
