Some of my favorite summer memories are picking berries in Baker, FL with my parents.
Strawberries, blueberries, and blackberries grow like weeds in this
area and we would fill buckets full of whatever sweet berry was in
season. I even spent a birthday here as a teen. After a day of canoeing my parents brought my friends and I to Baker for berry picking and we had a blast!

This cobbler is one of my favorite dishes to make with the fresh picked berries (along with blueberry pancakes on Sunday morning!).

Triple J Farms is one of the most popular blueberry farms while Akers of Strawberries is a fun stop for garden veggies, homemade ice cream, and, you guessed it, strawberry pickin’!
A bucket full of berries with my Gma and Mom.
My Gma loved going to the farms with us and would pick twice as much as me!
Dad got a bucket full too!
Purple fingers!
Bushes full of blackberries.
The best way to store blueberries: do not wash until ready to eat.
Simply spread out on a baking sheet and freeze
then add to a large freezer bag and lay flat in the freezer.
The perfect bubbly cobbler filled with fresh picked berries!
What a great way to start summer!
