Mother's Day weekend we headed over to our favorite farm to pick strawberries. Ingram farm is a family owned business that has strawberry picking, bees, goats, a barn full of animals, and a country store. It is our favorite place to pick year after year!
This was our first time going the Saturday before Mother's Day and it was crowded!
Luckily the weather was beautiful and not too hot.
We picked way more strawberries than we normally do because I wanted to make lots of jam!
After our picking we visited the goats.
And the baby goats!
We were hoping to get some strawberry ice cream too, but the line was too long and we still had lots to get done that day.
We ended up making 10 jars of freezer jam and still had a huge tray of strawberries left. Ooops! A few too many because some ended up going bad before we could eat them up.
On Mother's Day we were able to have my parents and David's parents over for dinner and for dessert we had angel food cake with strawberries and homemade whipped cream. Yum! I am hoping that maybe we can get out there and pick one more time before it is too late. Fresh strawberries are the best!
