I picked blueberries this morning at Little Hill Berry Farm. It’s great to have fresh, local, organic fruit available close to home. My motivation this morning, on the last day of picking for this season, was to have some available for my son who is home for a short visit from Mozambique. He made arrangements to come back to attend a college friend’s wedding in MI and stopped by MN for a few days before heading back to Africa. It’s so good to see him. It was a sweet moment when he Skyped home this morning and precious, little Zoey (21 months) said “Hi Daddy!” It’s the first time I’ve heard her say daddy.
Last July when his wife and daughter were visiting us in Minnesota and I took them Little Hill Berry Farm to pick blueberries. It was a first experience for them and now a fun memory.
I am so happy for you that you could have your son home for several days. What a joy.
I’ve always wanted to pick blueberries as they are one of my favorite berries. Is this berry farm near Northfield?
Yes, it has been wonderful to have him home, if only for a few days.
Here’s the link to Little Hill Berry Farm’s website:

The berry farm is just north of Northfield…maybe two miles from the downtown area.
