We go every year to Edom, Tx, but usually not until the end of June. This year the blueberries came early so we went early. We picked the most we had ever picked in 4 years of going, 3 buckets full! We drank blueberry lemonade and ate blueberry ice cream and blueberry turnovers on our breaks to cool off from the hot sun. We left the house around 9:45 a.m. and got there by 11:30.
We went with The Whittle Family. They are the ones that introduced us to Blueberry Hill Farms in the first place. Once we had all had enough of the heat and picked all we could we headed to Mandy's parent's house afterwards. They are organic pig farmers and only live about 10 minutes from the blueberry farm. Max and Rhett got to feed the pigs and Kellyn and I enjoyed seeing the baby pigs and picking peaches.
They wore themselves out splashing in the little pool.
We stayed for dinner, pork kabobs, and they were delicious!
We didn't leave until after 8:00 and got home at 10:00, but still had to bathe. We were all so stinky and sweaty and dirty and gritty.
