Second Saturday of 2013 Picking Season

Depending who you talk to, picking is good to excellent. I have heard unreliable reports of bucket filling in a half hour, which is about as fast as one can pick; more reliable reports put it at an hour. We don't charge more if it takes you longer, so consider the extra time spent here a bonus. As usual, the best strategy is to spend time looking for the "right bush". 

Complaints from the past week about "the berries seem smaller than last year" are a mere memory as the recent pickers have been complimenting that the berries seem huge. There are enough bushes and berries and pickers of different varieties and view points that we have long since learned to not put a lot of credence in peoples' memories of conditions. This year's crop is not like last year's. Not sure there ever will be another 2012, but this year is going to end up fine (average).
