We took the family to Blue Dog Farm in Carnation this past Saturday for some delicious, organic blueberry picking! U-pick fruit is a great way to teach your kids about where their favorite fruits come from, and to help them understand the concept of gardening. Our toddler loved picking the ripe ones off the bush, and happily placing them in her bucket. It is pay by the pound, and the best part... you are welcome to eat some as you pick. My toddler definitely exercised that option! Once you are done picking, enjoy a nice picnic in the grass, or visit the chickens, pigs and cows that live on the farm. To top it off, the drive to Blue Dog Farm is only 40 minutes from Seattle and you get the pleasure of driving along some beautiful roads through lush, pastoral farm land. It's a great reminder of how blessed we are here in the Northwest.
