Picking blueberries is a fun summer tradition in East Texas. We went several times this summer until it was just too hot for the baby to be out at the farm. My husband came along as well a couple times. It is a fun affordable family activity to do together. I think it is therapeutic and allows you to slow down and talk with your kids (or spouse) or just quietly pick blueberries and think on things, because blueberry picking doesn’t take much thought. Any age can pick blueberries. My three year old loved it. He also loves to eat blueberries. We usually eat them as is or put them in pancakes but there’s a ton of blueberry recipes out there. The farm we went to was selling a blueberry recipe book. We went to The Blueberry Bush which is located on Highway 64. I filled out a post card there that gets sent back to me next year when they open.
I will be returning there next year and I recommend it to you too. Hope to see you there!
