Baskets, Bike Rides, and Blunier Berries

Baskets, Bike Rides, and Blunier Berries is what's been keeping us Busy lately (among other things too)! Every Thursday we harvest for our 5-6 vegetable basket customers. On Tuesday, we spend the day harvesting for farmers market, and another basket customer. We have also been supplying fresh veggies to the new store - The Country Cupboard. It keeps us on our toes, but we enjoy it - most of the time. :)

Marcus is working on spinning mint leaves for tea....

Last summer we got a sink in our garage, so all the mess is in the garage now! 

Here are the baskets, slowly coming together. 

Although gardening consumes most of our time, we still like to make time for bike rides - especially when it is beautiful weather! 

Mom and Kenan are usually with us too

It was pretty tricky to get a picture with all of our hands in the air at the same time, but we did it! Last summer we taught Mom how to ride with no hands, something she never could do when she was our age. Problem is, you can't take a picture while riding a bike with no hands...

And last of all, it's Strawberry season!! This year we have had many deliciously ripe, big strawberries! We all love them, and the chickens fight over the stems when we are done :)

Yum!

So, that is what we've been up to lately - seems like the summer gets as busy as the school year! -Faith
