Thrifty Tuesday

Pick Your Own


Everyone enjoys fresh fruits and vegetables in the summer. They taste so much better then anything we can purchase at our neighborhood grocery. We enjoy going to the Farmers Markets and finding fresh fruits and vegetables.


We look forward to the end of May when the strawberry Patch opens. We start out enthusiastically thinking of those nice big red juicy strawberries right out of the patch. The children are excited to go strawberry picking. Although they may eat as many as they pick...the evidence is in the red stain around their mouth and on their fingers. It is a fun time for the family!


Strawberries aren't the only thing we can pick for ourselves. Check out this site:




It lists places to pick your own fruits and vegetable in the Central Virginia, Charlottesville area. You can pick your own food and then freeze or can it for a wonderful treat this winter. It will save on the grocery bill and build special memories with your children.
