On Monday Madeleine, Joe, Brook and I went out to the U-Pick farm in palmer to harvest some fresh veggies and fruits. We got red and white potatoes, cucumbers, squash, snow peas, broccoli, raspberries, cauliflower, and various greens.. buckets-full, for only $50 between the 4 of us. If you're looking for out of the ground fresh stuff and don't mind getting a little dirty, take a trip to the valley and check it out for yourself. It doesn't get any cheaper or any fresher, and you help support local farmers. The place is called Pyrah's Pioneer U-Pick, and can be found by following these directions: Exiting into Palmer off the Glenn, access the Old Glenn Highway. At Mile 11, turn onto Bodenburg Loop Road. Pyrah's Pioneer Peak U-Pick Farm sits at Mile 3. Hours vary with the season so give them a call before heading out: 907-745-4511 -Nick
