Blackberry Picking in June, 2012


On Friday, June 15,  Bonnie, Jana and I ventured to Back Road Berries, a You Pick venue near The Villages.  We were given a white lined bucket, and instructed to walk to designated rows to pick blackberries.  It was a nice day, and the picking is very easy, but, just like all "shopping," the biggest just "might" be on the next blackberry bush !  After picking, one takes the bucket to the stand, and it is weighed and the customer is charged accordingly.  It was a fun experience, and much easier than strawberries, apples, or cherries. The blackberries are very large and  sweet. Fun times!
