Raspberries

 

One of our summer traditions since moving to Canada has been to go raspberry picking right around Asher's birthday (when they are perfect!). We went a few days after Asher's birthday this year and didn't get quite as many as previous years, but we had plenty to make in raspberry shakes, a raspberry pie, and of course just to eat alone.

Natalie and Trevor needed quite a bit of help picking raspberries that were ripe and not just any berry they could see


Trevor picked it up after awhile, but Natalie needed a buddy the whole time to make sure she was only picking ripe berries.

The kids especially love this pick-your-own farm because they have a fun playground with a few farm animals. Heidi spent almost all of her play time checking out the pony.

And here are our raspberry treats:
