STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER


There is a farm across the Mississippi in Illinois whose business is pick it yourself. Eckert’s rotates through strawberries, peaches, apples and pumpkins in season. It’s strawberry time and we took granddaughter Ellie and a friend yesterday. Fill up a basket and pay for it by weight. I later found that they charge more than the supermarket but it was fun for the kids and amusing to see all the families engaging in field labor.
