The Berries are Ripe

  We are pickin' and grinnin' once again. Our blackberries are coming in and this year we have a nice crop of blueberries for everyone to enjoy. Come out to our farm and fill up some pails with fresh sweet berries for cobblers, pies, smoothies, and just to snack on and fill up on antioxidants. You can find some good blueberry recipes listed on my gardening site, Growitveg.com, near the bottom of the recipes on the home page. I have already made two blueberry/peach cobblers that were enjoyed by all. I just replaced have the blueberries called for in the recipe with some fresh peaches from our tree.
  All across Baldwin County fresh produce of all types is available, from sweet corn and tomatoes, to blueberries and peaches, growers have their stands open for business. Our farm is located in Lillian not far from the Florida line, on county road 91, the same road as Cassabaum's sweet corn operation. They have a sign up saying their corn will be ready soon. Our thornless blackberries put on a heavy crop this year which we have for $3.00/lb we pick and $2.00/lb. you pick and the blueberries go for the same prices.
  Hillcrest farm is open for business with their own crop of blueberries and produce, along with homemade preserves and fresh eggs. So come out during the cool of the day, bring the young ones, and make it a family affair to gather this year's abundance and thank God for the chance to be together and enjoy life. See Ya'll in the berry patch.
