Cherry Picking // Jollay Orchards

The time has come for the Wojtowicz family to go on their fruit picking escapades!!

 

We thought that since our sisters took our older brother, Adrian, to San Francisco for his 21st birthday, it would be fitting to go on a little adventure of our own. Every year we loveee going blueberry picking, strawberry picking, cherry picking, and basically any other fruit. Why you may ask? Well picking your own fruit has its benefits. It's very fresh and tastes so good, but more importantly its much more cost effective to pick fruit than buy your own, especially if your buying blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, or berries of that kind. Plus if you find good farms that happen to be organic its supppeer healthy for you. As a family we try to avoid GMO, or processed food and that's another reason why we would rather pick our own fruit. Also, in the summertime it's a quick and easy way to get your tan on! :)

We visited a farm called Jollay Orchards, in Coloma Michigan. It was really great because they have so much variety in the fruit they grow, so you can get alot of fruit without having to go to multiple farms. It's also a great place to take artsy pictures in between the trees haha. Also, they have this really cute tractor that drives out all over the orchard, unfortunately I didn't get a good shot of it. The only thing I would warn you about is that they don't let dogs in. I don't know if orchards usually let dogs in but this was our first year taking our dog Nala with us and they didn't let us in with her. We didn't really mind it all that much because one of us stayed with her near the car, but its defiantly something to keep in mind if your planing a visit. Please excuse my excessive action shots, they are all accredited to Damian Wojtowicz.

Get the look:

I was wearing a Forever 21 crinkled peplum tank, similar to the one found here. To pear with that I wore, distressed denim shorts from Old Navy like the ones found here, and my new Soludos found here.
