We went blueberry picking over the weekend in Massachusetts at Cider Hill Farm with my family and then made delicious blueberry muffins. It was a great way to celebrate summer as a family and after three years of picking together it is now a family tradition. This year we also picked peaches–which were out of this world. Wherever you are you can find a place to pick your own fruit at pickyourown.org. Even if you don’t pick now, it is nice to know where nearby farms are in case you want to pick another time.
