Raspberry and Peach Picking

Every year we make at least one trip up to Hartland Orchard in Markham, Virginia. It is the most beautiful area up in the Shenandoah mountains. This year we picked peaches and raspberries and bought some already picked apples and raw honey.  The kids look forward to this trip every year and always have a blast picking fresh fruit. We pick about double what we purchase because we eat and eat and eat while we are there. It’s what makes the long drive out there so worth it.

Every time I would put the raspberries down to pick more the kids would stuff their faces. Hallie picked the whole time but Kyle figured out after 5 min that it was easier to eat already picked raspberries than pick his own.
