It's that time of year again...the strawberry patch opened on Monday and yesterday we went and picked 25 lbs. (yes you did read that right..25 lbs) of strawberries. We spent the afternoon making 60 jars of jam, pie, pie filling to freeze and eating all the rest! YUM!

Oh those look so yummy!
That is a huge undertaking. But freshly picked strawberries are the BEST!!
How do you find these places. Wonder if Utah has a strawberry picking farm. Not to mention I'd love the recipe for the jam, pie filling and all of the above. You are so homey.... your boys are very lucky...
