Strawberry Pickin' at Homestead Farms

There is no better way to spend a beautiful saturday in may than picking strawberries!! Homestead Farms in Maryland is definitely the place to go. After picking blackberries and peaches last year at HF, we knew we were ready to go back for strawberries! A short drive from home, through beautiful Potomac, it's a no brainer.

What's even better, once you get there, is that there are live animals on the farm! A few baby goats, some hens, and dirty pigs were enough to keep colton and sulley amused.

colton ate a few berries but was more in awe of all the airplanes flying overhead.

sulley probably ate every berry her fingers touched!

We're looking forward to another summer trip to Homestead. Maybe soon for tart cherries, but definitely in July for peaches!!
