U pick is far more expensive than road side stand prices in my area. Even in the road sides were 1000X as much, I'd pay the price rather then u pick.

My childhood u pick memories are of being fried to a crisp in a strawberry field. The blueberry picking has better memories but either I'm a lot bigger or the bushes are a lot smaller because I no longer see how I could fit underneath a blueberry bush and pick. I will admit apple picking is ok but the price per u pick pound is outrageous.

On my great-grandmother's farm we used to pick apples, pears and grapes. I'm not sure if those memories are so wonderful due to her or due to the fun times with my cousins?
