337/365 Pick Your Own Produce

Friends and Fitness Enthusiasts,

Yesterday I decided that it was time to visit my local farm and pick some strawberries. The strawberry season is winding down so get out there while you can. Picking your own produce is rewarding and fun. It makes you realize the hard work and care that goes into harvesting all the fruit we take for granted. Real life isn't like Farmville where you can harvest raspberries in 4 hours or artichoke in 4 days. It takes patience and diligence. Blueberry picking is just around the bend so get out there! Local Harvest is a helpful resource for finding farms, farm stands, CSA's and more. Happy picking!

In health,

Lauren
Picked by yours truly!
