Hopping along the berry trail

On a mid-July Sunday morning, eight families joined BRLA Board Member Chloe Gasiorowski for a berry-picking excursion along the BRLA trails. “BYO basket” was the name of the game and sticky fingers from ages 2 and up were all in the mix. “Normally we host this gathering at the end of July but because of the heat wave this summer, the berries all ripened two weeks earlier and were ready to go,” said BRLA Executive Director Lindsay Hearon. “It’s always fun to see half the berries go into the baskets and the other half right into the kids’ mouths.”
