Blackberry picking

Last week we went out to Nicholasville to a little farm where they had rows and rows of thorn less blackberries. The kids loved picking the blackberries!!!

Loved picking them not so much eating them. They were quite tart.

Mac got distracted by the dandelions.

The kids raced to get to the black ones first.


Mac found out that the ducks will eat the blackberries.
Feeding the fish.
Then we came home and made 5 batches of jam with our freshly picked blackberries and the super cheap strawberries! Thanks Cheryl for the great day!
