Annapolis Valley in Late Summer

We took advantage of a gorgeous late summer day to go blueberry picking in the Annapolis Valley of Nova Scotia on the weekend. 

First stop was lunch at the Port Pub in Port Williams, where we tried a couple of their house brews. Can you guess what fruit was used to flavour my wheat?




After fueling up with beer and burgers (lamb, veggie) at the Port Williams' Port Pub on the river, we headed to Blueberry Acres:


The sun was shining, the air was gentle. We were there on a Sunday, so the bushes hadn't quite recovered (perhaps) from Saturday picking but it still took no time at all to fill our buckets...


12 pounds of fruit-picking later...


Jam, jam, pies, more jam? What to do with all this bounty?!
