After a quick course as we rode on a rumbling, tractor-pulled trailer (luckily, my gourd held up under the jiggling!), they gave us a row and we started picking strawberries. There were strawberries as far as the eye could see, and I felt like I was in a virgin forest surrounded by giant lanterns. <\/p>\n<p><!--more-->In the midst of other motivated pickers, I filled up three baskets and my gourd. What a joy it was to taste that juicy fruit later on! They taste so much better when you&#8217;ve picked them yourself\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Later on, I got to explore the property of over 110 hectares where Christine, her husband and their children Grant and Lilly grow strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and other fruits and vegetables. Their family business grew out of Ken&#8217;s love of the land, a love which Christine has come to share with him. Together, they have made it a way of life which they share with the hundreds of pickers, both big and little, who come to visit their farm every year. <\/p>\n<p>The humans and plants brought back warm memories of <a href=\"\/?p=3232\" title=\"les Incroyables Comestibles\">the Incredible Edibles<\/a> <small>(article in French)<\/small> and the <a href=\"\/?p=3445\">Terre et Humanisme<\/a> <small>(French)<\/small> team.
