Lost track of the days on the bright side...

...a hide-a-way pick your own berry farm has been found! Sweeny and I took a drive around the island and found tons of little farms. It seems that most people will hit up the first two larger farms right when you enter the island; however, the drive around it actually quite nice.

Blue Bee Farm is a small family owned farm that has rows and rows of blueberry bushes, a small garden where they sell lettuce, they make their own raspberry jam, which is quite good and they even have bee hives for honey! BBF is unfortunately not certified organic but they do not use any pesticides or sprays on their plants. In comparison to the other larger farmers, the rows are more spaced out so you don't have to fight your way to the berries.

They were actually closed the day that Sweeny and I went, but the owner still allowed us to pick and gave us a solid background of their farm. Complete with a pair of large German Shepherds and a gaggle of kids snacking while they run through the rows of berries. We were able to pick a flat of blueberries and I bought some jam with promises of returning for beets and carrots this week. So if you're in the mood for some good company and yummy berries, this would be the place to find! I have two types of berries, Rekas and Gold something or others ready to be snacked on and baked into noms.

Tip of the Day: Sometimes the effort is worth it for something great. I don't like blueberries- I'd eat the Rekas all day long from this place.
