Play Day

I have been wanting to pick blueberries for a very long time. I heard about Moorehead's years ago and never made it out there. Today we left about 8am and got there about 9am. There are 2 parking areas and I was really amazed to see so many people there. There were about 40 cars in 2 parking areas. We received 2 buckets and started for the orange marker. Below is a picture of the check out area.

There are 20 acres of blueberry plants. There was a group of preschool children there.

There were people of all ages picking blueberries and having a great time.

It's amazing to see all the ripe berries just waiting to be picked.

My husband and our grandson picked a lot of berries.

Our grandson was really proud of his bucket full of blueberries. We ended up with 10 pounds of berries at 1.50 a pound. I plan to freeze half of them right away. I'll be baking blueberry muffins the next couple of days. We had a lot of fun today and we'll have to do this again. Blueberries are ripe here in southeast Texas from late May through the end of July.
