Every year it gets better

I live just down the road from this gem of a fruit farm. My son and I eagerly await the beginning of strawberry season. As the days warm and June rolls around, each day we drive by watching for the the signs to let us know when we can expect the first of the blessed red berries. And so begins a summer and fall full of fresh, ripe, delicious fruit. I can't drive by the stand without hearing from the back of the car, "I want blueberries mommy!" The owner and other workers on the farm are knowledgable, friendly and so helpful. I was happy to see G&S expand their U-Pick options this year, and I now have a new tradition to continue from when I was young with my own children. There was plenty of raspberries and blackberries the day we came out to pick (very helpful when you are with a 3 year old!). This year I am interested in finding out more about the CSA which was started last year. Many thanks and kudos go out to Gary Craft and his family for providing wholesome and mouthwatering fruit for my family. They have managed to deal with increases in production costs and labor regulations creatively, and in the process have improved on what was already something wonderful for the community.
