The Poles have an experimental agricultural station where they are learning about American blueberries. Since there's no one to pick and sell the resulting fruit, the director invites the Americans from the embassy to a yearly picking session. Then they charge us a nominal fee per kilo.
We ended up with more than 10 pounds of blueberries for only about $22! The freezer is full and we plan to eat blueberry pancakes, muffins, pie, cobbler, and smoothies for many months.
Since bugs were present, this is where Katy spent her time during the excursion! This is a step up from last year's apple picking fiasco when tears were involved (tall, dry grass and flying grasshoppers in the apple orchard- so much for passing on traditions and memories from my own childhood)!
