Looking for something fun to do this weekend? Webb Ranch U-Pick is a summer tradition in our family. Butte Blackberries, Ollalieberries, Loganberries and Raspberries...all for only $3/pound + a $3 entrance fee )free for anyone 65+). To give you an idea of the cost savings...a small square of organic berries at the Farmer's Market or Whole Foods would cost you about $4-5. A three pack could cost you $12-15. That same three pack would cost you between $4-5 at the Webb Ranch U-Pick.
We get enough to:
* eat em fresh!
* freeze em for smoothies
* make 8 jars of jelly for our use for the year, and gifts.
This is the last weekend for Webb Ranch's U-Pick season. So get there by June 28 or wait until next season! Some tips for your trip:
* Wear comfortable shoes, no sandals (berries have thorns!)
* Bring gardening gloves (see note above!)
* Bring a tupperware to collect berries
* Go early in the morning for lesser crowds and cooler weather
* Bring a hat and wear sunscreen
* Bring cash to pay
