Rush River Blueberries



We picked blueberries in Maiden Rock, Wisconsin this month. Bucolic Rush River farm sits on a bluff amid all things summery-green. To get to the blueberry patch, you'll park in the grass, and wade through coils of vegetables that would surely reach the clouds - if Jack carried them up his beanstalk. You'll see wild children running through bush and field, eating, boredom momentarily extinguished; perky flower patches waving in the breeze. Blueberries.

  Follow my fingers...

Magic indeed. But the magic really happened on a Saturday. Blueberries to feed the body, a farm to feed the soul.

Such a lovely post, Sharon. A farm is always a wonderful place to visit and picking blueberries at that farm is a bonus! They are my favorite berries. I made a mixed berry pie recently that was very delicious-- it is in my link today.

Blueberries, flowers, a barn and a walk all under a nice sky. Nothing better in a day for me.

Sharon - I know I have said it before, but you are an AMAZING photographer. I love the angle of the barn picture - looking up at it. Just different enough to be super interesting. And I am a huge fan of hollyhocks, so you had me mesmerized with those ... gosh darn it, I liked it all!!! Thanks for such a gloriously sublime post for Mosaic Monday!

Like how your post begins with a Ralph Waldo Emerson quote I hadn't heard of before. My neighbor always had beautiful hollyhocks when I was growing up. My blueberries are from the supermarket, but I still love eating them. Enjoyed all your photos.

That barn is so picturesque. Your closeup flower shots are just beautiful.

Wow! Maiden Rock is not that far from where I live, but I've never been to that farm before. It looks gorgeous. I have been to the top of that bluff though. It's a gorgeous view in the fall.

You've made me think nicer thoughts about my hollyhocks this week :) Where are the blueberry photos?

Himawan Sant said...

Of course this is a very beautiful and memorable farm after visiting it. I am amazed that beautiful flowers bloom beautifully in there ...
