Strawberries, Blackberries, Raspberries...Oh My!



















This past week, I was reading the May issue of the Oklahoma magazine and I saw there are places around town to pick your own berries! Can you believe it?? I thought this tradition was extinct in the U.S. because the only time that I have seen the opportunities to pick your own assorted berries has been in England. 

As you can imagine, I was so excited when I saw this article. I checked out some of the locations online and it looks like there is a place in Sapulpa, as well as in Broken Arrow (at least these were the locations close to Andrew and I). Here are the business names and telephone numbers, if you're interested. 

Sapulpa: Bucket of Berries - 918-639-9914 or 918-227-0101
Broken Arrow: Thunderbird Berries - 918-704-5374 or 918-704-5795

So, as soon as the rain stops, I'm heading out to pick my own berries. I'm thinking that I can use the berries to make a strawberry shortcake or a fruit pizza. Yum. What do you think??
