Raspberry Selecting on the Boring Farm in Sebastapol



Final weekend Connor and I went on a raspberry selecting journey at a u-pick farm.
Have you ever ever visited a u-pick farm? There’s fairly a number of up right here, and there quite a lot of enjoyable, particularly with children.
At Boring Farms (sure, that’s the title), which is situated about half-hour north of Marin county within the rural city of Sebastapol, you may decide as many raspberries off the vine as your coronary heart wishes!

Right here’s the way it works. You first make a web-based reservation and pay for a parking move. Then on the day of your journey, you arrive at a chosen time earlier than 12.
Earlier than you enter the farm, you obtain a brief lesson from Rachel, the proprietor, on how you can decide raspberries and the place to choose them, and which of the completely different species has extra thorns or much less. We caught to the areas with the minimal thorns!

How one can eat raspberries correctly
Rachel the proprietor says you’re supposed to make use of your tongue to push the raspberry up towards the roof of your mouth to interrupt it open. That means you get most taste and minimal seeds in between your tooth. Who knew?
One other factor I realized from Rachel is that it’s sensible to put on boots that cowl your ankles while you’re raspberry selecting. I had on cropped denims and no-show socks, and my ankles stored getting poked by the vegetation.

Anyway, you then get a field to replenish with an many berries as you need. Once you’re finished, you pay for them by the pound.

Oh, on the register there’s additionally raspberry snacks accessible, together with raspberry lemonade and raspberry popsicles. Connor opted for chocolate lined raspberry popsicle possibility.

If you’d like, you may usher in a picnic lunch and luxuriate in it by the pond, after which you may go to with the cows that reside on the property.

One very last thing—put on a hat as a result of there isn’t quite a lot of shade within the selecting space. Additionally, perhaps take into consideration taking your allergy meds beforehand, or convey them with you. I had a large allergy assault that day and was mainly out of fee as soon as we received dwelling. Eek! Nonetheless, it’s a enjoyable factor to do for those who’re ever up in Sonoma county and wish to be outdoor.
Your pleasant neighborhood magnificence addict,
